I am in severe pain ?!
Question: I am in severe pain .?
I got a new upper wire because mine broke. And I had new colors put on and tightened. They also put on rubber bands connecting my upper eye teeth to my lower eye teeth to my back molars. (to pull my eye teeth down) I just took 2 extra strength tylenol about 40 minutes ago. I am still in pain. Will i be in a lot of pain in the morning.? I Have to go to school no matter what because i have already missed to much school this year and have plans this weekend. Is their anything i can do to ease the pain to get some sleep.? Thanks :)Health Question & Answer

I always used Advil, that worked better for me. I dunno why, you might want to try it. Sometimes drinking something cold can help numb your gums for a while. Maybe you can drink a slushy or something and make your gums numb so the teeth pain dies down.Health Question & Answer

Typically the pain will last about 4-6 days with the first 2 or 3 being the most severe. When I had wires tightened I would take 800mg of ibuprofen to ease the pain and it usually made it bearable. If you're just sitting at home it sometimes helps to numb your mouth by holding ice water in it for as long as you can bare. Chewing is the worst and it will probably hurt regardless but if you cannot stand it any longer it might be possible to have your pediatrician prescribe three days worth of acetaminophen #3. It's Tylenol with a small amount of codeine as well. Because codeine is a schedule one narcotic your pediatrician may not want to prescribe it to you but if the pain is unbearable it may be worth asking. Feel better soon.
