Yeah you're fine!.!.!. :]

When I got my braces on they hurt for about 8-9 days and then I could eat soft foods!. Ocassionally, though, they hurt when you do certain things!. The pain will definitely subside by the time you're ready for your next tightening!. After each month(and each tightening), you'll see it hurts less and less!. I got used to the pain after 2 tightenings, but that's just me!. God knows how long it will take you, since everyone's different!.

Good luck!.!.!. I hate my braces!Www@Answer-Health@Com

its normal and they feel like theyre loose bc your teeth are being moved and theyre not used to it!. its like that day after you get the spacers in and your whole jaw hurts sometimes!. itll do that for a little while and then youll adjust just in time for the next appt where they tighten the braces and it starts all over again!. its a vicious circle!.!.!.of course every time i complained about it when i had braces my mom would say that its a sign that its working and that she was getting her moneys worth in my mouth!.!. but seriously youll get used to it after a month or so!. you can always take a tylenol or advil for the pain if its too bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

oh yes braces! i had those too! but dont worry my mom is a dentist and i was worried about the samething when i got them!. since you got them not to long ago its normal for them to hurt and everytime you go back to change the wire its going to be the samething allover again, it'll hurt! but thats normal!. about the whole lose teeth thing thats also normal dont worry your teeth are not going to fall off!. its just since your teeth are moving t get corrected thats going to happen!. but dont worry in the long run you'll have beautiful teethWww@Answer-Health@Com

Unfortuanately, yes it is normal!. The more it hurts, the more your teeth are shifting!. About the time it quits hurting, its time to go back in and have them tightened!.

I used to think of it this way!.!.!.the more it hurts, the less time you will have to wear them!. Wear your elastic bands, don't chew gum, brush often and don't miss your appointments!. If you don't do all the right things, you'll have to wear them longer! Do right and get them off!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is normal to have teeth hurt for a few weeks!. Your teeth are just adjusting and moving around so your teeth get sore easy!.
Mine were loose when i had braces!. It's a bit uncomfortable when you get them adjusted at the orthidonist, but i got through it without it hurting too much!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes! Every month when you go in for an adjustment or "tighening" it will be sore for a few days afterwards!. My ortho said that some teeth are more sensitive than others, that's why some of them hurt more than others!. Same thing with the loose teeth, they are still moving!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I remember them hurting for the first few weeks when I got them!. The pain does subside!. I had mine for 3 years plus headgear!. But I got them off in time for high school!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

That happened to my daughter!. We talked to the dentist!. He said "that means the braces are working their magic" Maybe they are too tight!. I would first talk to your orthodontist!.

Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
