  1. I know how it is. When I got my braces, it was terribly painful. My orthodontist told me to take Advil. But don't take too much. The day after I got my braces and my palette expander, I had to give a 10 min speech in school, and everyone laughed at me because I slurred all of the words like a drunk person. Not fun. It'll get better after a while.


  2. Its Normal,Same thing had happened to me.Except I had 2 extractions

    From My opinion I thinks it just takes time to get used to

  3. think about it like this.

    your teeth are bones.

    and so the braces are moving the bones.

    its like taking your spine and moving it, but obviously less severe.

    So, you're normal.

    I never had teeth pulled, but currently I have braces for about...2 years? Anywho, you'll be fine. Take advil, tylonal, or aleve for the pain. Eat soft foods like soup, and mashed potatoes. Just remember the braces are moving your teeth to line up straight, and not have any gaps. It's rough your first month, but after that, going to the ortho and wearing them is nothing. It'll feel funny, so when you say it's pushing it back, its probably bringing it down, so its at the same level as the others, and also pulling it forward, which is easy to confuse as pulling it back.

    Don't worry. You'll be fine. I promise.

  4. you should prob put wax near it or call the orthidontists

  5. nothing's wrong with you.

    i got them like a year ago and they hurt sooooo bad.

    i couldn't even sleep.

    the more crocked the ar, the more they hurt.

    take advil or tylenol.

    and at night tylenol pm (or advil pm)
