Answers:
I got dental retainers and my gums are swollen too.. but it's because I'm not used to it. I use a type of mouth wash to help my gums heal faster. I think that the same thing happened to you, I don't know about any metal allergies though.
it could be anything. talk to ur orthedontist
it could be the kind of medal or plastic your skin just does not like it I would phone the walk in clinic or your doctor soon in case it swell and you might have trouble breathing
IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE NOT USE TO IT.
