Answers: DOES IT HURT WHEN THEY ARE PUTTING YOUR B
braces
or not? ///////////////////////////===========
I have just turned thirteen and I got train track braces in December after having really annoying/sore overbite braces (they made you look like you were giving permanent sniders plus all your food got stuck in the top plate).
It doesn't hurt when you first get them on but about twenty minutes later it starts hurting and by the time it's a few hours later your in agony.
Heres some things you should know.
It doesn't hurt when you first put them on it hurts about twenty minutes later and lasts up to about to two weeks afterwards depending on how sensitive your teeth are (mine lasted for about three days).
If you don't like school you will like it even though it's painful because you normally get about two days off each time it's tightened because it's so painful (so painful you end up crying half the time just to let you know).
Sorry if I'm scaring you but I thought you should know the honest truth.
I've never had a tooth ache as I have had brilliant teeth hygiene all my life but I think it is probably worse considering you get mild tooth aches and very very painful tooth aches.
They gave me one ulsar because at one side my orthadontist left the wire too long but it soon goes away as your gums adjust.
I've never had the colours changed but when i had them put of the first time (the same as changing them) it was painless it was the most relaxing bit of the treatment.
I would suggest buying the little floshing brushes to use in your braces and use the water pik aswell. I use both and it helps bad breath and stuff like that.
Also stock up of mouthwash and toothpaste for obvious reasons!
Always carry mints and a little compact mirror for bad breath plus food stuck in the braces. It's really not nice for people to see or smell.
Since I am bored I will explain what happened to me e.g. how he put it on.
First obviously you lie back in the chair and put these speacial UV protection glasses on.
He first cleans your teeth with something simmilar to a water pik.
He then puts green gel stuff on your teeth so the braces will stick better (they are glued to your teeth BTW). Don't put your toungue on the gel it tastes digusting and leaves you with a horrible taste in your mouth all day.
He gets the brackets (the bits the colour goes on) and sticks them with special glue on your teeth. One per tooth.
He now cuts a bit of wire and clips that in to each bracket to form a brace. He know asks you what colours you would like. I would suggest green and pink as it looks super cool in your mouth but it's your decision.
He puts the colours in (you can ask for three colours one after the other, two colours one after the other or first on the top set second colour on the bottom set).
Now he explains your brushing routine and gives you dental wax to helps your gums and tongue (you can basically throw thi in the bin when you are home - it is hopeless and doesn't even stick to your braces).
I forgot to mention that while he is doing this you have a vacuam type tube in your mouth so you don't choke on your saliva or the water out the water pik thing.
I have pink and green at the momment they are very cool. They are very bright! The green is lovely. I have these colours until March I want black and purple in March.
The black is super cool too I think and doesn't make you look like you have rotton teeth. Since in March it's nearly easter time I suggest "Easter colours" like pink, yellow, green, light blue, lilacs. Any soft/pastal colour is like a "Easter colour".
If you are scared/worried tell your orthadontist he/she should then take you through what they are going to do to make you feel at ease.
Good luck and hope your better soon if they end up sore.
Feel free to e-mail me about anything to do with dentists or braces.
Hope I helped!
it hurts after butt you get used to it =D
yes. they actually had to pull 4 of my teeth out to put them in.. and now i have to wear a retainer for life.
Not when they put them on, they hurt later.
No definitely not. Just some pressure. The only annoying thing that thing that they put into your mouth to keep it open. Good luck and you'll be glad you had them.
my friend has braces and she says they hurt for the first 2-5 days and it hurts to talk or eat harder stuff but it stoped huting after that
I DIDN't think it did just a lil uncomfortable
hell yeah...
they like pull ur teeth
and ur mouth gets so dry
at least they hurt me
Hm, duh.
well when they are putting thenm on no but like in 10 mins hell yes
no its painless but it hurts after they put it but then it wount hurt after u get use to it
you might feel a little pressure but thats mainly it when they are putting them on. but after that your teeth hurt when you bite anything, so eat soft things. also you might want to take pain relievers to ease the pain. good luck lol =]
no not when they're putting them on. But after your teeth hurt for a couple days.
yeap...but ....u'll get used 2 it
oh and it also hurts when they take them off...however think of the beautiful smile u'll have after they r taken off...eh??
I Have Braces And No They Dont Hurt When They Are Putting Them On
When They Are On They Will Only Hurt For A Couple Of Hours And If They Are Hurting Just Take Some Pain Killers And They Will Be Fine
There Not As Bad As They Seem
Trust Me
Good Luck With Them
No it doesn't. You don't even feel it! It only hurts a few hours after you get them on. All the pressure they put on your teeth start to take affect. if this happens eat some icecream to numb the pain. Try avoiding ice cream that has like candy, or cookiedough in it cuz it won't help cuz you would have to bite and that would cause more pressure. Once the pain is gone then you can.
My daughter has just had her braces removed (after 2 years). It didn't hurt her having them put on but they did rub on the inside of her mouth giving her sores. Ask your dentist for some wax, you put this over the metal and it prevents rubbing. Good Luck
I honestly think the only reason it hurts while they're putting them on is because you have to keep your mouth open for that long. But it's not too bad.
It does hurt afterward. For me, it was the next day. The whole first day I didn't understand why everybody made such a big deal. The next day I understood. But you get used to. Just make sure you chew sugarless gum. It'll hurt, but it gets your teeth adjusted and makes the pain go away so much faster.
It hurts after- putting them on is Painless
hi, i have braces right now for about a year,
puting braces does not hurt!
it's just glueing metal to ur teeth,but unfortunatly after you got them they will hurt for about a week that's because ur teeth r moving.
but at least after they're gone you will have a hollywood smile (-:
It doesn't hurt when they are putting them on, put your mouth has to get used to having them in your mouth, so you might get some rub sores. Just get some dental wax at the pharmacy and put it over the brackets that have rubbed in. It's easy to remove to brush your teeth, and keep it on there until your mouth heals, it'll get used to it, and then you won't need it anymore
When they put on your braces, they are only gluing them on. It just is sore when they are shifting for the first few days.
no it doesnt but wen wen they put rubber bands and tighten them then it hurts
