Answer 1

Your mouth is kinda confused right now I remember when i just got mine on it hurt at first but you just have to grin and bare it because if you stopp brushing them the problem will just get worse trust me it will go away and everything will be like nothing ever happened in like 3 days or less.

Answer 2

Just brush as gently and slowly as possible. I know it seems like your mouth will never adjust to the braces but they will. Be sure to keep your braces nice and clean.

Answer 3

I just got my braces off also and I have the same feeling, and the promblem is that your gums are still adjusting to not having all that metal around them. They will be hurting when you brush becuase there not used it it..It will go away soon. I promise :)

Have a great day! and good luck!!! :)

Answer 4

Well when I had braces, for the first few days it hurts to brush.

But I just used a soft bristled brush and that helps out alot.

And just use some mouthwash after you brush to kind of help that out.

But don't worry you'll get used to them after a week or so and it won't hurt so bad.

Good luck with the braces!

Answer 5

Just be careful and brush slowly, in a couple of days you'll be able to brush normally :]
