You get used to it after a while.
i hope i do it hurts bad
be thankful they didn't get messed up.
my friend ashley got hers put on reversed and had to redo the whole process.
the wire is to far out on my mouth so i cant eat beacuse my teeth would hit the wire and i cant close my mouth :{ so idk they may have put the wire up to high or soemthing
I am sure the dentist told you this... But here goes regardless:
Leave it a couple of days, it does hurt I know; you just have to cope. If it still hurts after a couple of days, then make an appointment with your dentist and let them make a decision ;D
it hurts worse this morning lmao :{
With my traintracks it took about a week before it all settled and i could eat any solids, i ate math tattys and soup for the first week then ate boiled eggs and stuff for the seconds week and i was fine then.
Just feel luck you aint had your tongue pierced ;) :P took like 4 weeks for that to stop hurting with me, iby the end of the 4 weeks id lost atleast 2 stone =P
Good luck with le healing processness :)
My train tracks calmed down after about a week to..
Once they settle down its like there not there ;]
i feel a little better after brushing
When I had mine, almost every time the wires got put on/changed there was some sticking out, which wasn't much fun for my gums. I actually got sort of callouses on the inside of my cheeks where I'd been "stabbed" by the loose ends for so long, but in the short term, get some dental wax and put it over any sharp bits. Your teeth will feel painful and possibly wobbly for quite a while also, this is because of the brace pulling at them to get them where they should be. In my own experience, braces are no fun at all, but you'll know they were worth it when they come off.
Definetely worth it
A few days and the pain will go, just wait till you have them taken off! That is seriously weird! I hate my things.. I got them after braces and I have to put them in each night
My minds gone blank and I can't remember the name OMG!
That must suck, I had a retainer defintly better because they can be removed easy when ever you want them to be off. I had it for like 40days that's it. My dentist said my teeth move like rubber.
cut your head off then your teeth wont hurt?
I've never had braces before but like all things you've just got to get used to it after a while and you'll completely forget about it.Quote:

It helps if you take a paracetamol [Sp?] If it really hurts.
& you probably won't have to have them for 3 years, My orthadentist told me that, And I only had them on for 6 months, And now my teeth are straightt ;D
