Answers:
Well, they may hurt for just a few days, or maybe a couple weeks!. I depends!.
I suggest taking some asprin, it helps!. And every time you go to get your rubber bands changed, it may hurt for a couple days afterwards!. But once your teeth become straighter, then changing the rubberbands will hurt less and less!.
Food suggestions: Hull-less popcorn( popcorn without the kernels!. It kinda looks like cheetoes, and you can find it in the chip section, and it melts in yout mouth!. Applesauce, yogurt, pudding, ice cream, soup, mac and cheese, shakes and smoothies, soggy cereal, or just anything that you don't really have to chew!.
Also I've found that lightly brushing my teeth makes them feel better!. I guess it's cuz the toothpaste feels minty and tingly on my sore gums!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its going to hurt for a few days, especially since you just had them put on!. Its going to take a little getting used to!. You can take Tylenol to help ease the pain!. And your orthodontist should have given you a list of foods you should avoid while you have your braces on, but for now since you are still in pain, i would advise soft foods!. Good Luck, i had mine on for 3 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
they will hurt for about a week or so!. Then you get to go through it all again every time your orthodontist changes or tightens the wires!. Try Tylenol, it helped me !.!.!.other than that, eat soft foods !!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
