Im a dental nurse in an orthodontist. Take a paracetamol. The pain will go away after a few days. Its coz ur teeth will be a little tender at the moment but they will soon get used to moving around. Dont worry you wont feel like this for the whole 18 months or however long you will have ur braces on. Take care xxx

I remember that well. It's horrible!!
Is it pain that you feel? It can be unexpected. If it hurts a lot - go back and get your braces re-adjusted.
Just keep focusing on how beautiful your teeth will look when you have worn your braces for a while!!!!
It is worth it!

I think you should go and visit your dentist. Braces shouldn't cause you that much pain, they are usually made to be adjusted so that any movement of teeth is done slowly to give them chance to set in.

Find out why it hurts. My daughter had a bit sticking into her gum. I took her back to the orthodontist and they snipped the sharp bit off. Otherwise, give them a ring and ask their advice.

It is just mind over matter. Tell yourself" That does not hurt!" Say that over and over and real soon, the pain will go away.

you can get this wax that your dentist should give you and you should place this where it hurts. do not take medication as you will want to take it whenever it hurts....... you will get used to it in a couple of days or a week to 2 weeks

Wow. It didn't hurt me! Just take Ibuprofen. Good Luck!

Take them off and wear a belt instead.
