Answers:
Most orthodontists don't "tighten" anymore.. They still call it tightening but it's really just getting a new wire..

They remove the wire from your braces.. Which doesn't hurt.. They clip off the ends or just give you a whole new wire.. The place it in, put on the colors or bands and VOILA!

It's not very sore.. It just feels a little tight.. It depends on how much they did with your wire.. Just ask.. It shouldn't hurt that bad! Good luck! :)Health Question & Answer

your teeth can hurt when you bite down and when you eat stuff, but thats only for the first few days.. after the first few days, your teeth should be back to normal.. when they just get tightened, the rubberbands adjust your tooth position, and as much as it hurts you just have to resist it.. itll go away soon just dont pay attention to it.. haha i go to sleep everytime i get them tightened to forget the pain o;

hope this answers ur question!

you dont feel much in the dentists office, but after about 15-20 min you start to feel the pain.. it's not too bad and it only really hurts when you try to eat or chew gum.. it'll go away after a day or two..Health Question & Answer

when you get your braces tightened, it will hurt for a about one or two days, you would mainly feel this pain because your teeth are shifting into proper, then after that you will feel fineHealth Question & Answer

Right after they tighten them, it feels like pressure against your teeth.. After a few hours, its very painful..?
it may also feel like your teeth are smaller, but it will feel normal after about 3 days..Health Question & Answer

it hurts for a couple days
if they put the rubber-band thing on your front teeth it hurts even more ......but tightening is about the same feeling as the spacers you get used to it after awhileHealth Question & Answer

For me, it felt like my teeth were getting pulled apart..
But nothing painful, just mad pressureHealth Question & Answer
