owwww! I got braces today at 2:00pm. I have two tests to take tomorrow and I really need to be able to sleep, but I can't because of my braces. My teeth are hurting very bad and my lips are swollen. I know that it's normal, but I really need my sleep. I've already tried the wax strips and aleve. Neither one of those things are helping, though. Does anyone know of something else that works quickly?

omg. braces totally suck lol. try eating icecream, sucking on ice or popsicles, or anything cold. also take tylenol or some pain medicine. talk to your teachers and tell them about your braces and how much they hurt, and that you think that you can't concetrate. she/he might give you an excuse. well good luck and hope i helped!

You only got the braces a few hours ago hun, it's going to hurt like hell. It just is. It might even distract you from your tests tomorrow.
You could try to take a bit of drowsy medication, like a nighttime cold medicine or gravol, to help you sleep. But you still probably won’t sleep well.
The best thing to do is to explain your situation to your teachers. Take the tests anyways, but let them know you are in a lot of pain and that you are worried about your performance on them. They might be able to provide other options and support. ]
Well there's really nothing you can do to get rid of the pain...but for sleep you can take sleeping pills. Though if you barely got them today you will be even more sore in the morning...it just takes time for the pain to go away but maybe you can stay home for a day to let the soreness get a little better. Because with all that pain you won't be able to focus on anything. ]
