How long does it take for my braces to stop hurting?

Question

I just got them on Wednesday. Do they hurt after each time the ortho tightens them? If they do, how long will it last?

Answer 1

Try using ambesol, a product that numbs your gums.

Answer 2

probably a week at the most first the yfeel weird then hurt

yes every time they tighten them it would hurt

Answer 3

yes&bout 2 days

Answer 4

If you have a lot of pain with your braces take an advil for the pain and give it a day or 2 max to get over the pain. I wouldnt eat any hard food and would stick to making milkshakes until the pain goes away.

Answer 5

They will hurt for a few days after you get them adjusted. Try taking Tylenol (or a generic brand)  and do so before each visit. That should help the pain.
