My braces hurt :(

So i got my top braces fitted today and they put a small thin wire in to move them slowly and get some progress goin.

On the bottom however apparently the wire had snapped(i didn't even know, maybe i have hard brushing or something xD) but to stop the wire from snapping the second time, today they put in one of the meatiest wires i've seen.
It's literally 3-4 times the thickness of the wire they put on my top teeth

Aw man...I remember when my braces hurt. It sucked. I just want to give you a hug.
Yep, I was on the same boat as you and had to eat baby food for like a week but then my dentist got mad because he said I needed to "chew" xD, but don't worry, the pain will wear off and it will all be worth it in the end! #flawlessteeth

Me too! It was bad enough with just the usual braces, but then they started adding other stuff like chains and rotation wedges, which made it so much worse :frown:

I was so glad to get them off!
yh, ikr i had braces, and it pained a lot but went after a week, so u should be fine after a while :smile:
Take painkillers if they're hurting a lot but otherwise, ice cream and nothing you have to bite hard. The pain will go away in a few days.

meh it's annoying at first but sometimes your teeth are so ****ed up that it hurts to loosen them then let them move, especially those teeth at the back of my jaw?

Good grief, and I thought I had it bad enough. I never had any of those accessories.

Ah you're lucky!
It wasn't too long actually, only 20 months I think. Some of my cousins had theirs on for 5 years or so!
Ahh this brings back tearful memories. It will go eventually don't worry

I got my braces first in about year 7 and spent a lot of time telling my parents how much agony I was in :smile: I guess you'll have to wait for the ice cream, but it's worth it.
