Hi there!
Okay, there is a bunch of things you can do!. Try getting a water bottle with ice water, and just putting the water in your mouth, like you are going to use a mouth rinse, but don't spit it out!. The wires in your braces loosen with the cold!.
Also, try going to your local CVS/Walgreens, and buying some canker sore medicine, and putting it all over your mouth!.
You should take some ibuprofen to help with the swelling, and take naps, they help alot!.
I don't reccomend you eat solid food for 3/4 days after getting your braces on, it hurts like heckk!
The pain will be over in a few days, and remember, it's worth it in the end!Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I got my braces on, my mouth hurt like crazy for a while (many weeks)!.
After a while, though, they stopped hurting and I was totally used to them!.
Take tylonal and don't eat anything hard or chewy for a while!. Your teeth move the most the first few weeks you have braces, and your mouth needs to get used to them, so they will hurt for a while, but it will get better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just wait it out, keep taking your medicine and enjoy all the ice cream and spoiling from your parents you can get!. It'll stop after a while, took me a couple days before I could eat solid foods and about a week before the pain was pretty much gone!. I took a lot of naps when I got my braces on, just to kind of "skip" time periods where you'd be in pain!. Don't worry, the pain will stop, just give it a day or 2 and you'll be feeling much better!. Trust me, just enjoy the spoiling while you can!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Okay, i just got braces literally an hour ago so they just explained everything to me!.!.!. the orthadontsist should have givin you this plastic thing to bite down on!.!. and if you dont have that try some advil or tylenol!. and if its ur gums that hurt or r sore then try orajel or stick wax on the braces that r scatching up against it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
They will hurt for a couple of days!. It gets better and easier!. You will get use to them super fast!. Here is a tip!. Keep in mind that the pain you are feeling, is good pain, it means that beautiful teeth are coming your way!!
I would be worried if you felt NO pain!!
Second tip!.!.!.ANYWHERE that starts to rub your lips or cut your cheeks, PUT WAX ON!!!!! If you let it rub and rub, you will get horrible blisters!! And they are bad bad bad pain!!
So RIGHT when you feel something rubbing against your cheeks, put a little wax on the bracket to keep it off of your skin!. It will help reduce pain in the long run!! For now, just take some TYLENOL!. NOT IBPROFINE!! Tylenol helps w/ tooth pain, IBprofine does not!. Just take 2 and relax!. Your teeth will feel better soon!. Congrats on getting braces!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

get oragel, that numbs your mouth like you wouldn't believe, you can find it at walmart near the toothpaste and floss!.
also, it sounds weird, but if you rub vaseline on them it makes them slippery so they wont grab the inside of your lips!. it really worked for me, and its totally safe to put in your mouthWww@Answer-Health@Com

It's gonna hurt for a few days!. Take the recommended dosage of Tylenol every 4-6 hours!. Other than that, you're gonna have to tough it out!. It gets better!. Trust me!.
I've had braces for two years, had an expander & getting another one next week!.
Best of luck to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can only tough it out!. You can take advil or something for any headaches, but that won't help braces too!. They hurt after you get them on and whenever they tighten 'em!. Just live it out for a few days and then you'll be fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
advil (asprin) you should be on that like every 3 hours for a while and to make the time go by so your not always thinking about how badly they suck you should suck on somethingWww@Answer-Health@Com
