honestly!? the real way to avoid this is!.!.!.!.
LIVE IT OUT!.
your lips will actually create a callus from the braces friction and help prevent this in the future!. to help it heal, just be extra careful from further cutting it up!. eat soft foods, maybe even put some of the orthodontist's wax on your braces, and take some ibuprofen if it hurts!.
also, dont punch yourself in the face!. hahaha!. I got braces too, I hate 'em!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have braces on right now, so take the wax that the ortho gave u and COVER the braces and wire on the side where u are injured, LEAVE IT IN THERE AND DONT TAKE IT OUT TO BRUSH TEETH, u waste alot of wax and u can go for a day or 2, This way your cheek will be given a decent rest and will be tough for the futureWww@Answer-Health@Com
um you can put a small piece of garlic!. Just don't think about its taste!. If you don't want garlic, you can put a cotton to comfort your cheeks!.so it won't get stick!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

back in the day when braces really hurt, they would give you a type of wax to put between your cheek and braces!. For now try using gum that wont stick to them permanentlyWww@Answer-Health@Com
Use a clump of wax & put it on the bracket that gets caught on the cut!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
