Question: How do i live with these stupid spacers!?
i have had 6 spacers on my back teeth for 3 days now, and they went in really hard because my back molars are really tight!. but anyways they still hurt like heck!. i have been taking pain medication (motrin) every 4 hours everyday, but the pain is still there!. i cant get over it!. don't get me wrong, the medication is taking the edge off, but it still hurts really bad!. What should i do!? also, for people who had this problem, will the braces hurt even more!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have spacers in right now to lol!.
But I just got them yesterday, yes it's painful but it's bearable, atleast for me!. I also have been taking Motrin every 4 hours and it helps me a lot!. But try not talking a lot, and dont make your teeth touch, that way it will make the pain worse!. Keep your mouth slightly open!. My teeth dont hurt if i dont touch them!. Try making a cold drink, go for a walk maybe to keep your mind off of the pain!. Or just rest and sleep it out!.
That's really all the advice i can give you, but dont worry braces are definetly not as bad as spacers, not one bit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i haven't had braces, but i have had to sit through many complaints from my friends!. :)
so my advice to you is to just try to relax as much as possbile during these next few days!.
try taking long hot bubble baths, or going out w/ your friends, and do anything you can to take your mind of the pain!.
if you don't think about it, it won't hurt as much!.
maybe try sleeping alot!? lol
also, eat the softest foods possible!.
ie: soup, pudding, jello, smoothies, ice cream, macaroni and cheese, pasta, spaghetti, cooked carrots, watermelon, and other soft things!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had the same problem!!! My spacers hurt like there was no tomorow, but I got over it!. My pain lasted about 5 days, and by then they were adjusted!. They won't hurt that bad for much longer, and braces hurt less!. Actually, braces don't even hurt at all when you think about it!. Your teeth are just REALLY REALLY REALLY tender for a while, but motrin helps that too ;-) Just make sure you brush your teeth a lot!!!
P!.S!. HOPE I HELPED!!!
