Having braces placed is pretty painless!. Later on in the day your teeth will become tender as they start to move!. To be on the safe side take some extra strength tylenol before you go and keep it in your system for the next 3-4 days!. I work for an orthodontist and the reason we recommend tylenol is because it is known that high doses of some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as Ibuprofen can slow and even stop tooth-movement!. Most recently Imigran, a drug used to treat migraine has been identified as possibly interfering with tooth-movement!. So be careful when selecting your pain relief medication!. You will also want to stick to a softer diet because your teeth will be to tender to chew anything tough!. Also ask the orthodontist to give you plenty of wax and show you how to properly apply it!. Best of luck to you!Www@Answer-Health@Com
First, don't worry!. It isn't as painful etc as people say it is!.
Second, make sure you have tons of soft food!. I remember eating a lot of ice cream shakes, tuna fish, jello, etc for the first few days!. After the first couple of days it really doesn't hurt much!.
Also, brush very lightly, don't worry about flossing, and don't eat anything sticky or chewy!.
Lastly, try to enjoy it, before you know it they will be off! I remember getting my off like it was yesterday and I got mine taken off about 7 years ago!.!.!.!.Good Luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take Ibprofin or Advil !!BEFORE!! you get your braces on!.
Stock up on soft foods such as yogurt, mashed potatoes, oatmeal, etc!. for the first 4 or so days!.
Get plenty of semi-soft foods for days 4 and up!.
You should be able to eat 100% normally within a week or a little over!.
Make sure to really brush your teeth well in between brackets and on teh surface of your teeth!.
Relax! Have fun!
DO NOT TRY TO FLOSS UNTIL YOUR TEETH DON'T HURT SO BADLY!. I tried to floss on my third day of having my braces, and I was in so much pain that I thought I was getting my teeth pulled!.(My teeth were very crooked)!.
Good luck! Smiles!
