Question: Help with braces..........?
i got braces about 9 hours ago. when i go to sleep at night, then wake up in the morning, is it gonna hurt really badly.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
well, if it was 9 hours ago..
does it hurt now.?
if it doesnt really
then your lucky ;)
it all depends.. cause when you sleep
your teeth are gunna be moving around,
thats the magic of braces
see; when i got mine,
they hurt about 2 hours later
and they didnt hurt when i would put pressure on them, but if i took the pressure off,
itd hurt
so while i slept, i either didnt let anything tuoch them
or i slept on my face [lol]
but it kinda all depends on how you sleep
but it most likely will hurt
not from sleeping,
but from them moving for the whole 8 hours you ahevnt used them, while sleeping
so when you wake up, just take some advil before the real pain kicks in

How much discomfort you feel really depends on your own tolerance. If you were really sore from the separators (aka spacers) you'll probably be really sore from the braces.
Eat a soft diet (soup, yogurt, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, etc) and if it's really bad take advil or tylenol.
You'll probably get some sores in your mouth from the friction of your lips/cheeks rubbing the braces - rinse with warm salt water as many times a day as you need. This will simply soothe the sore spots. Then use the wax your ortho gave you.
All of these issues are temporary. All will go away. All will lessen as time goes on.
Good luck & keep 'em clean.Health Question & Answer

It really depends on the person .
Mine did hurt but it hurts for a couple of days . Like you feel pressure on your teeth . If it starts cutting the inside of your mouth or getting blisters, put wax on your teeth (the one the dr. gave you)
if you still need help, ask me:]Health Question & Answer

Everyone experiences braces differently. For the 1st few days they will ache and some times may be worse than others, but the chances are if they aren't hurting bad now, they won't hurt bad tomorrow. Just be careful not to lay on your mouth in your sleep.Health Question & Answer
