What to take when u got new braces and they hurt!?!?


Question:
i just got braces yesterday!![[7/20/07]] and my whole mouth is in pain!! does anybody know what i can take to make the pain go away?!?!

Answers:
take a lot of aspirin, that helped me. also use your wax because they will start cutting your cheeks. i'm not trying to scare you, the pain will go away by next week.
actually u can take a painkiller.
try to eat liquid food stuffs {juices,avoid hard things} and im sorry to say tat u have to bear the pain for some days!!hang on!
The best thing to take is ibuprofen...that is what we recommend to all our patients. The pain should go away in a few days, your teeth are shifting that is why you are having pain.
I just got my braces too (07/20/2007 7:30 am EST) and I am in so much pain, but I am already noticing I speak better and I can't wait for the final results! Wear wax, it definitely helps!! Hang in there it is worth it!! Also, in my case advil or any pain killer helps.
