Braces helppp?

Question

out of a 1-10... 10 being the most paintful!!!!!!

how bad do braces hurt because i was at the dentist & i saw this boy freaking out, crying & yelling when they were putting braces on him, it was so sad :(

Answer 1

Well, putting on the braces is like, a 1. It doesn't hurt at all, really. The boy that you saw, was probably nervous or something, and overreacted :/ When you get them tightened, or when you first get them, its maybe a 5 1/2. Your mouth gets kinda sore for a couple of days, but then it goes back to normal! If your getting them, don't worry!

Answer 2

It's hurts when you get the color changed so they get tightened somehow although all that they do is put in a new wire and change the elastics so it hurts for about 3-4 days, and when they scrape the glue off when you get them off. They are really harsh. I think that that boy was screaming because they like shove this thing in your mouth that stretches your mouth really wide for like an hour while they put them in. So I would say about 7.

Answer 3

7.

It doesn't hurt while they put them on, but the day after kills, then after that it's ok.

But when you get them off, it feels SO good. =)

Answer 4

like they said...

when their getting put on doesnt hurt at all

but then next few days is very painful and hard to eat

but the result after is amazing =]
