retainers
I just got my braces off last week..and I received my retainer (It's the metal/wire kind)..besides gagging, is the wire suppose to be poking you in between your teeth? Is it suppose to hurt? Help!

If it is poking then you should go back to the ortho office and make them fix it. But expect it to be sore for a while (just like braces).

it might hurt a little bit because of the pressure but you just have to get used to it. eventually your retained will losen up a little bit and then your orthodontest will tighten it so its back to being tight but it has to be that way to make sure your teeth dont move out of place

I have one of those. It will hurt a little bit the first few days until you get used to it. If your orthadontist carries it (he should) ask for wax. If he has it, he will know what it is. It'll soothe your mouth, gauranteed. To numb it, or make it feel better, try drinking cold liquids.

Maybe you just have to get used to them. How long did you have them? If its over 3 days and they still hurt, call your ortho. Tell him to fix it. I don't think its suppose to be killing your mouth. =P

No it is not suppose to hurt! Have one of your parents take you back to the orthodontist office and make the orthodontist fix it!

call your orthodontist.
i have braces and before i got them i had to wear a retainer. it only hurt for like a day.
i think you should call and tell him whats wrong.

I'm really not sure if its supposed to hurt, I mean mine did when I put it in but then stopped after a while. But I do know that it is not supposed to be poking you. I suggest you take it back and get it trimmed or whatever they do.
~hope i helped
