Question:
Please help, my teeth hurt so bad! (BRACES)?
Oh my GOD I cant even bite down they hurt so bad im crying and can barely move my mouth. I got my braces tightened today and i feel like someone is yanking my teeth out of my head! Is there anything I can do to relieve the pain? And is getting braces tightnes always this painful?
Answers:
It's normal for your teeth to be hurting the way they do. People usually take pain differently. You say this is hurting you sooo bad but to someone else it could only bother them a little...you know. So I would suggest taking some motrin or whatever is better for you that you usually take. It's like getting braids in your hair if you've ever had any, and they make it sooo tight that you can barely turn your head and it also feels like someone is ripping every hair out. And it makes you tear up, but again, motrin or other pain relievers help. If the problem persists for more than 3-4 days and still no improvement, see you dentist.
