At one point it was said I needed them, but eventually those acqusations were false leading me to having decent teeth today. Still, spacers for practically all victims patients are a bitch to get used to and are very painful. And it's not so much as their genes really, nurture and defects are to blame ;D
You could always try asprins or even small amounts of rum to remedy the pain (Or am I thinking of teething?). Sorry if I am not really helping all that much v.v
Oh and it's only a PC from 01, still it's a piece of shit compared to the other beauty's out there. It just gets the job done, but I need more power....POWAH! *cough*............ <_< meh just like PC's, game systems, iPods and other electronic devices decide when they want to work. Unfortunately usually at the worst times -_-
