Question: Should i take a motrin/tylenol before or after i get my braces.?
Answers:
I took an ibuprofen right before I left my house to go to the orthodontist.. It helped me because while I was getting my braces put on, it didn't hurt at all.. The only problem I had for about a week, was sensitive teeth.. But it's different for everyone.. Some of my friends had a terrible pain, while others like me, only had sensitivity.. Just keep that tylenol near you!

you should probably take 1 right after you get them on b/c it will last longer.. you might want to take 2 b/c mine hurt really bad.. the pain wont start for about 1-3 hours after you get them on.. u wont be able to eat solid foods(steak, ect--anything that requires ur teeth) and applesauce, pudding, maybe ice cream will be really good; just be careful with the spoon b/c if u hit ur teeth or mouth it will hurt EXTREMELY bad!Health Question & Answer
You want to take it before to try and prevent pain.. When I got my braces my mouth was soar a bit, but the Tylenol really helped.. I ate alot of soft foods for awhile and applesause became my best friend until I was able to eat solids.. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
I would take advil or tylenol right after you get them on or as your leaving the office.. If the pain is really bad piggy-back the advil and tylenol.. Health Question & Answer
i took it after, because then it'll leesen the pain when it starts.. if you take it before, you're just taking it for no reason.. It normally starts to hurt 3-4 hours after you get them on..Health Question & Answer
