Please help.......in a lot of pain?

Well i got my braces tightened today. I also had power chains put on all my upper teeth. So i have the chains on and i have the bands. I had to take of the bands off because the pain was so bad. Is it ok that i took the bands off to ease the pain? How can i ease the throbbing pain? Ohhhhh the painnnn!

I know how you feel. I have braces and just got my powerchain taken off yesterday. I had to wear rubberbands at the same time. I didn't wear the first couple of days so I could get used to the powerchain. Try eating tylonal or Ibeprofein. It didn't make a difference to the dentist that I took them off for a while.
