im sorry it hurts. been there done that. try to take some pain medication, like tylenol or ibuprofen if you haven’t already.

and the pain should go away in about 3-7 days…i cant tell you an exact day because it’s different for everybody. for me it was about 5 days.

good luck!

for me the really bad pain (like right now) lasted about 4 days.
the second day was the hardest.

oh and when they tighten your braces it will hurt but no where near as bad.

ouch, I'm getting them next month. I hope it gets better. Have you tried pain killers? It'll get better.

wow! i got mine yesterday too

But it would be a good idea to eat some panadol- I ate some this morning and my gums stopped hurting badly, but I still have to eat goo and soups. My friend said that your gums stop hurting badly everytim you try to chew in 2-3 days. I think at most a week

when i got mine on they hurt for 6 days, if i remeber correctly. they hurt like hell when you first get them on...i know how you feel! it won't hurt as bad the next time, when you get them tightened. you could try and take some painkillers to take the edge off the pain a little.

hang in there, the pain will go away soon!
in the meantime, try taking panadol or nurofen to ease the pain.
i remember it worked for me

i remember when i got braces. Had mine for 2 years. so i know how you feel.

You should only been in mild discomfort for like 2 days. 3 at the most. Doesn’t really take that long to get used to.

Good luck darling

one week. 4 days at the most. don’t worry, the pain will vanish soon enough. try drinking advil or tylenol to help get rid of the pain.
