I know this is a late answer but to anyone who has dentist questions here is an important WARNING: Your ligaments stretch easier than ever now so it is easy to wind up with a sprained jaw, if you have work done it's important to not do too much at once. I just had 2hrs of work done a week ago, thinking it was good to get it over with, and the pain I am in now is incredable. I should have broken it down in to 30 min appointments. Less conveinent but worth avoiding the pain of jaw sprain. It's been impossible to get through without tylenol at least before bedtime.
