Ughhh .. braces are awfullll. BUT the pain should go away within the next few weeks, try taking advil or tylenol. Eat some ice cream too, even if it doesn't help your teeth maybe it'll make you feel better :)

Eventually when you go back to the orthodontist, he's going to tighten the braces again and they're going to hurt. Eventually you get used to it and the pain only lasts 2-4 days. I know it sucks but it's something you just gotta get through for it to get better. The end results are sooo worth it <3 I had braces for 4 years so I know it's no fun =/ if you have any other questions just let me know. :)

oh mann, braces were the worst. i know how you feel :/
the pain will vary from person to person, but it usually stays sore for about 2-4 days, and then you get used to it. but trust me, take advil or tylenol and youll feel soo much better.
good luck, and feel better soon ! xxo.

Probably about a week.


For now, you're just going to have to bite the pain. See what I did there?

Bet you're not thinking about your teeth pain now! You're wondering why you couldn't stop banging your head up and down.

dont worry, the first few days are always the worst, once they stop moving the pain will go away, you can take panadol (i did that to help me sleep better at night, works a charm!)
