Your mouth has turned into a water park. Saliva production is on overdrive, and you are the unwilling lifeguard.
Why? Your brain thinks the plastic appliance is a giant piece of food. It’s screaming, “Let’s digest this!” So, you drool. A lot.
Pro tip: Carry a tissue. Or just embrace the glisten. You’re not gross; you’re hydrating.

Yesterday, you were a numb-faced superhero. Today, the Novocain has ghosted you. Sensitivity is back with a vengeance.
That dull ache? It’s your gums saying, “Hey, we’re alive!” It’s a good sign. It means healing is happening.
Fun fact: Your bone is already starting to remodel itself. You are literally reshaping your skull, one weird sensation at a time.
