I just got braces and there on the top and bottom of my back teeth?
Question:
Answers:
your teeth are just sore from the braces. when i got mine i resorted to baby food, Gerbers in the glass jar, and yogurt. be sure that you eat soft food for a few days and take some pain meds. this wont last forever. oh, the next time you get the braces changed try biting down on something, gnawing on it, like a few pieces of gum or a pen. when you do this before the pain kicks in your teeth wont hurt as bad later or for as long!
you will be able to bite down in about 4 or 5 days. in the meantime, eat really soft food. try eating baby food or things like mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, etc.
you will be ok with time take a few asprin or pain releivers if it gets really sore and request wax.
I got my braces on yesterday and the same thing has happened to me... I'm eating soup and yogurt... and waiting to see what people say
