Braces help?!


Question:

Braces help?

I just got braces three days ago and they don't hurt at all--the one thing that is drinving me crazy though is the sharp pieces of metal digging into my cheeks at every angle. I'm afriad I will never get use to this and I cannot go through the day without smothering my teeth in wax. Im going for an appointment soon to see if they can trim any wires but im so sad/frusterated. What should I do?


Answers:

I'm getting my braces off in three days ;) Well Ive had wires sticking out and they can rip your cheeks up. I have scars from some of them =/ No need to worry. The dentist will make it feel fine. All they have to do is put the wire back into place. The wire is probably loose from chewing something sticky or something like that so it comes undone and gets put in a position so it rips your cheek up. Be caution of gum because theres like a 50% chance of it screwing up your braces. For the first few days after they tighten your braces it will feel sore. But not matter what your braces should feel snug. Nothing poking or pulling in the wrong direction.
