Ok im a mid teenager and i just got braces put on like a week ago. But ive been noticing the past two days that im swallowing wierd with my tongue, almsot like a tongue thrust. I suck all the spit from the out side of my mouth, the Front teeth region where mybraces are to my tongue and swallow. I swallow normal without my tongue touching my teeth but when i suck the spit to the tongue area my tounge pushes forward. Is this becasue of my braces or is this a problem to be concerned aobut. Ive never had a tongue thrusting problem before so why is this weird tongue thing happening now? I talk fine and evrything but is this a habit that will continue or will it go away as i get use to the braces? Answers please.
