A lot of my friends said when they got braces, it didn’t hurt that much, but I just got ‘em yesterday, and the damn things hurt like hell for some reason, anything I can do to make it go away?
Thanks.
Tylenol pain reliever really helps. I remember the first time I got braces, I couldn’t chew for a whole week until my mouth got used to them. Don’t worry though, it’s worth the pain. when you take it off, you get to flash those perfect teeth of yours.
Try Ambesol or one of those other toothache gels/liquids. May help numb some of the pain. You could also try Ibuprofen. If not then your Doctor would need to write a prescription for a mild narcotic pain medication, typically Darvocet or Vicodin for dental issues if they will even give it to you.
I got braces a couple months ago and at first your teeth will be sore and you can’t eat. I lived off yogurt and jello for like 4 days. But you can take ibuprofen to ease it and just use lots of wax and trust me it gets a lot better!!
Yeah try all those answers and keep eating things like popsicles and suck on ice to get the swelling down. Pain relievers, lots of wax if their rubbing. Only eat soft food for a few days. Soups, mash potatoes, rice, noodles, etc.
forget medicine eat a frosty from wendys lol, that made my braces fell just fine but they will probably be sore for a couple of days its worth it though
