It will get better. I know it hurts really bad right now just keep taking the Tylenol and try ice packs. My daughter was the same way. I asked her to think of anyone she knew that had ever died from having their braces put on. She just smiled or tried to and knew it would get better. Give it a little time, this will pass.
Reply:I am sorry to say it, but there really is no solution. Don't worry though, the pain will go away. Give it between 2-5 days and you wont even know they're there. Every time you get a thicker wire put in, it will be the same. They put thicker wires in when there is a problem tooth that is out of track, this wire just pulls it down into spot. Don't get worried, it isn't bad!
Reply:Swish with Hydrogen Peroxide. It kills pain quickly and you can do it two or three times a day till you get adjusted. It will also bubble the food junk out of your braces. It tastes a little funky.





I have used it for many, many years to keep my mouth healthy and pain free.





My Dentist started me using it.





Excedrin (1 if you are only around 100 lbs. or two if you are more) is an excellent pain killer.
Reply:Try eating and drinking cold things, ice cream, jello, cold water, etc. Braces wires are activated by the heat of your mouth, and consequently loosen when you ingest cold foods/drinks.


So also, avoid very hot foods, it can make it more painful.





Keep taking tylonol, or advil if it works better for you. The pain should go away soon.
