Braces????
It may take a couple weeks or so to be completely used to chewing with them. I had braces twice. When I was a teenager, it took about a week to chew normally. As an adult, it took about 3 weeks.
Reply:It's normal. I have braces too.
Reply:That's normal. I have braces and it hurts during the first few days but the pain will disappear after a while and you'll get used to it.
Reply:Completely normal. You may get that everytime they tighten them, but its not that bad and it will all pay off :)
Reply:Youre going to be sore for a bit. It'll go away but return again when you get them tightened. If it's a really horrid pain call your dentist.
Reply:that's normal.... your teeth are adjusting..... they are moving, that's why it hurts so much... and it will be a bit like that every time you go to the doctor and get the braces tightened..... sorry, but always think how nice it will look, when they are gone!!!
Reply:my friend has braces and its normal for her


uhh i need to get braces rate the pain 1-10 on how bad it hurt!


im really scared
Reply:hi there.. a good question at last....you teeth are gripped in a vice which is realigning them.


they will be sore for a couple of weeks. why not opt to liquidize your food until they settle down.
Reply:This is normal! The pain will start to subside in a few days, you should feel fine. That's until you go back and get them tighten back up.
Reply:This is perfectly normal. Your teeth will be sore for the first couple of days after each time you get them tightened. It's a pain in the bum cos i could only eat soup for those days. You do eventually get use to it.
Reply:That's normal. The first day I got mine even a slight breeze had me wincing ;) It should go away soon.
Reply:Maybe ur enamel ( a coat that protects the teeth) is low that it pains .
Reply:Of course it's normal. No worries.


I've been through that too. I had the same worries.


Your teeth will only ache for a few days after every tightening and after that, you'll be able to eat solids! :)


hope this helps. :D
Reply:Totally 100% normal. Everyone's pain threshold is different. It took me 5 days before I could eat anything that involved chewing or touching the teeth. Trust me, it is normal, I and thousands of other people know what you are going through (many people on this site included). Give it a few more days, hang in there.
