Answers:
This happens after you get them adjusted. The problem is that when they adjust they are basically tightening them up so that the teeth can start moving. For instance, when you drink water it hurts like crazy as you mentioned. The best thing that my dentist recommended was to gurgle salt water and take pain killers. After a few more days, it will go away. Don't worry. However, if it keeps hurting, give the dentist a call. They will be glad to help you. Hope this helps!
