ehmagawddddd! thats like what happened 2 me! it hurt a lot! i just ate alot of pudding. your braces actually hurt less if you chew with them so i chewed a lot of gum and ate like 30 pain relievers!
aghh omgosh.
i feel your pain!
i got mine on when i was 12 and still have them on :[
i thought i would never be able to eat again
it hurt so badly!
i just took some pain relievers and ate mashed potatoes and jello for a couple weeks.
its one heck of a way to get skinny! lol
Wow i had that 2. Just eat ice cream and bite into it and it'll go numb. Try soft foods and try a lot of soup. But blow on it so it gets cold. Put the baby jell called orejeel i think its called. babies put it on their teeth when its first growing.
i used to have braces,, they hurt whenever you first get them on or whenever you get them tightened. The only way to help them is time, you can take pain relievers but its not good for you. I would reccommend to eat softer foods like soups and bread, they'll eventually stop hurting all you have to do is wait.
im 13 and i got braces this year in jan.. and omg i feel ur pain. i think u should take Montrin...and drink alot of wamr things... DO NOT eat ice cream or things like tat. trust me
Hi. I got my braces a month ago. They hurt really bad for about ten days or more. After that they didn't hurt any more. Then when you get them tightened they'll hurt again. But not as much. Eat soft foods until the pain goes away.

I'm 13.....
I got my braces at the age of 15 and it hurt like hell the first 2-3 days and was extremely uncomfortable. Give it a few days and the pain will eventually reside. In the meantime, you should take some aspirin, Advil, or Tylenol to alleviate the pain and discomfort. You can also squish your mouth with Chloraseptic. You should also call up your orthodontist and ask him for advice.
I ONLY TOOK TYLONOL WHEN I HAD MY BRACES, THEY HURT ALOT TILL U GET USED TO THE TIGHTNESS, THEY GAVE ME WAS TO PUT ON BRACES SO THEY WOULD NOT CUT MY MOUTH TOO. ASK ORTHODONTIST FOR MOUTH RINSE AND WAX AND IF YOU NEED STRONGER MED THEN TYLONOL
Yeah everyone has that when they first get braces. Just take a pain reliever and eat jello and ice cream and mashed potatoes until you're able to eat solid food without any pain. I'm sorry to tell you this but my pain took like a week to a week and a half for it to be completely gone. I think i lost like 3 lbs lol. Just remember how great your smile will be once you get them off!
Mine hurt for two weeks after I got them on. You just have to take tylenol frequently, but use only when you need it. Taking it too much can hurt you. All I ate for the first week or so was meal replacements. Like slim fast, boost, ensure, or something similar. And use wax! It will help a lot and protect your mouth from getting ripped up. After your mouth gets used to the brackets it will naturally develop calluses, which protects your mouth.
