O that sux... I got mine tightened a few days ago, and they still hurt. :(

OK, some things you can do:
Put lots of wax on your braces (doesn't help much for soreness, but its fun. lol. good for cheek and gum irritation 2)
Press a stick of sugar free gum onto your brackets for cheek pain if wax keeps melting off. (it happens)
sleep. A lot! It helps you not think about it and gives your body time 2 adjust.
Tylenol (duh. u should have taken a few before you got them, and keep on it for a day or so)
And remember, you will be able to eat again! Someday... lol. I didn't eat except to drink milk or room temp water (good 4 sensitivity) for 4 days after i got braces.

Good luck, and I hope I helped!
