When will my braces stop hurting so much?!


Question: When will my braces stop hurting so much!?
Most people say about a week, but I mean when will they stop being unbearably painful!? I don't mind a dull ache or anything, just not so!.!. pulsating!.

I got them on two days ago!. The first full day was okayish, but last night I woke up twice with one of the worst pains I've ever had to endure :( It was horrible!.

When will I be able to chew again also!? It's a good job mashed potatoes are my favourite food :D

Thank youWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It varies a bit from person to person!.!.!.a bit like any pain!.

If the pain is still absolutely unbearable after a week then call the orthodontist and they may be able to help you!.

In the mean time I'm afraid you'll just have to grin and bear it (if you pardon the slight pun there)!.

Your mouth needs a little while to get used to the braces being there!. You may find that you develop a few ulcers!.

Again how soon you will be able to chew normally varies from person to person!.!.!.for me it was a couple of weeks!.!.!.for my brother it was the same day!.

If you are really having troubles contact your orthodontist and see what they say!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
