My jaws were rubberbanded together pretty tight for the first week. KL then removed some and made it just 3 or 4 before I left town. He told me to just change them when they break. My mouth opening got better and better and I could open to about 1 inch with the rubberbands in place when I went back to see him to have the arch bars removed 5 weeks later. The mouth opening got much better very soon after that. He told me to do some stretching exercise I think about a month after the arch bars were removed.
