Question: I just got them on yesterday.
Answers: I just got them on yesterday.
If it is intolerable pain, see your orthodontist.
Braces are going to be very uncomforable, but you will get used to the pain after awhile. After a few days the pain should begin to cease.
Try taking Advil or Tylenol (I prefer Advil) and then applying Orajel on your gums around the painful areas. By the time the numbness from the Orajel is gone, the Advil will have kicked in.
I recommend Advil Liqui-Gels. They start working very fast, and they are easy to swallow.
Just think, in a couple years you will have beautiful teeth.
go back to the dentist and ask them to loosen them a bit for u.
see your dentist!!
rinse with salt water several times per day. Also, take an advil every few hours. If they keep hurting after a few days, go back and talk to your orthodontist.
If you just got them yesturday they are going to hurt for about a week. It really helps if you eat icecream becuase it makes your mouth cold and you can barly feel the pain. It worked for me it might work for you. HOPE THIS HELPED!!!! :)
