oh gawd i know how thats like, im 13 and i got top and bottom the SAME day! lets just say my teeth were so crooked, i had an underbite AND overbite all in one mouth! so when i got mine, it hurt like hell! so, what i did, was!.!.!.

EAT ICE CREAM!.
POPSICLES
FREEZIES!.
ETC ETC,

Stuff that is cold reacts with the metal on your braces and stops them for a while, thats why if you eat soup or something hot, it will make your mouth hurt!. so eat COLD things, and it will stop the pain!.:)Www@Answer-Health@Com

When they first go on they hurt alot for about a week and the only thing that works is a pain killer, but it still hurts when eating!. And dont touch your teeth or anything!.

The more you get your braces tightened the straighter your teeth are, and the less painful your teeth will be!

I just got mine tightened and got elastics, so I literally feel your pain!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i completly know how you feel!. I had braces for four years and practically every other thing that they could put in my mouth they did!. Everytime i went for a check up, i came home wailing in pain!. The only thing i did was take teylonol or asprin, i know its gross but if you chew asprin it works better, because it gets into you gums and relaxes them!. The thing that worked the best for me was trying to get my mind off of them!. It will go away, but i feel your pain!.
