Just be patient. Work on your fundamentals and school music, but don't worry. It's a strange transition, and there isn't much you can do about it. Don't worry, it could be as short as a couple days or longer like a couple weeks, everyone is different. Just be patient and things will go your way!

lucky....I hate my braces, there the one thing thats holding me back from what I used to be able to do. I'm just thankful I can still play very well with them thanks to lip protectors. Without them I couldn't make 1st chair everywhere I go except all-district and all state, But i got 2ed chair district and I still have to re-audition for chairs at state-fun!

When I got my braces off, I didn't just make a transition, I improved my range two partials! Think of it as being beneficial, not a burden!

Yeah, when i got my braces off, my range improved and it was easier to get a good tone. It only took me about 2-3 weeks to get used to no braces. Like Erik said, just be patient.
