I had one of those before I got braces, You will get used to it. All I could eat for like 2 weeks was oatmeal and grits. But I promise you will get used to it.I got a palette expander on Wednesday, and it sucks... can someone give me some advice or tips?
It will take some time for you to get used to the device in your mouth. Try not to play with the device with your tongue. You might cut or hurt your tongue.
My friend's daughter had a palette extender and said she got used to it in about 2 weeks, so just hang in there.
Can you eat ice cream? That would sort of slide down as it melted and may not cause the gag reflex. Or make a milkshake. May you could suck on some soft chocolate -- you know, just let it melt in your mouth.
Hope you feel better soon.
