My braces hurt and I am getting bad sores in my mouth. Got them 3 days ago. Please HELP!?
Any suggestions? I can't eat anything! Is there anyone out there that has the same problem as me>?Thank you.
Answers:
sores are very normal when you first get braces. your mouth just has to get used to them and the tissue will get tougher and then you wont be as sensitive to the brackets.
for now? um...you need some wax if you dont have any yet.
this sounds really gross, but get a cup of water and put in a couple teaspoons of salt (i put in like 5) and gargle it. seriously. it helps. big time!!! cleans out the sores and they go away quicker.
This is BAD
Go back to your dentist NOW
the orthodontist should give you wax you can put over the scratchy parts of the braces. Call and ask for some!
