It’s a really specific definition of *smiling through the pain*
Oh that’s hilarious 😂 It’s just too painful for me to physically smile right now but your comment made me laugh (on the inside at least).

I got my top and bottom braces on yesterday and I hurts
Same, my ortho added my bottom my 3rd visit since getting my top put on and the pain from the bottom was literally excruciating. simmered down after a week.
I just left the orthodontist she replaced my top ones, I cracked my tooth, and have 3 that’s loose they said I have to pull them or the doing an operation.😭
(I don’t have my bottle ones YET)
got them on like 5 hours ago? pain kicked in, and now i cant sleep :’)
Sorry to hear. Just know it will get better. I hope you have access to some pain relief medication.
AAME
I COULD BARELY SLEEP 4 hourssss
Update? Lol totally i’m not asking cause i’m contemplating just cutting them off at this point :)
@@someonesomeone3126 DUDE it gets so much better i promise you. no longer having to take any meds or use any wax!! so much more comfortable w smiling too. PLEASE PERSEVERE I PROMISE ITS SO WORTH IT!!
Got my braces yesterday
The pain is just to the extreme
Can't chew so whenever I think of food my mood easily change into😭..
Feel like sleeping for a week suddenly gets up with no pain🤗
Hey I’m getting braces tomorrow did it hurt when they putted braces on ur teeth Cuz I’m kinda nervous
@@yesno9142 bro i had them put on yesterday didn't feel a thing when they were being put on and then it was just uncomfortable until i woke up today. Holy fuck the pain is bad but we take meds and trust the process.
@@patstel9024 i did it 3 days ago. Same as u
@@patstel9024on 2nd day it hurts like hell
omg same, im so short tempered and cry at everything rn... these things suck!
I got them 2 days ago. It’s so hard to eat I didn’t eat dinner all I really did was cry myself to sleep :)
same i got mine two days ago
Bro I can’t sleep 💀
I just had mine fixed less than 3 hours ago. Reading these comments, I'm waiting for the pain to come!
For quite long I dint feel any pain although there was some discomfort. I felt like superhuman till pain started the next day 😂😂
It's been 1 day. I'm leaving this comment here because I'll come back here one day after my teeth is totally aligned and I'll realise the pain was worth☺️✌️. But for now the pain is uncontrollable 😭😭
Sorry to hear, I hope you have taken pain killers
Gurllll telll meeee how is ur teeth rnnnn????
Was it worth it
Soo
It's been 2 years!!
At first I was worried about my tooth extraction but never thought that after braces will hurt more. Even biting on soft bread feels like I'm biting a stone.
I got mine tightened and it hurts 💀😭
Im gonna die 😭
It is so painful 😣
Pls are you able to bite on soft bread now cause I feel like shit😭😭😭
Had my braces fixed two days ago
Just got my first braces on 2 hours ago. It feels very strange and I feel like someone is pressing my all teeth together , but pain is manageable as of now.. I feel my saliva out while sleeping hehe I wokeup a few times to wipe it out.. but its gone in first 7 hours.. wish me good luck for the first 7 days as my orthodontist told me it takes 7 days to get used to it. I always tell myself NO PAIN NO GAIN. Btw I blended my food and eating my dinner.. struggling to eat aswell.. 😫 but alhamdulilah am finally happy that I have put on my braces and I have started my journey to get to my beautiful smile destination ☺ inshallah
Me too 🥹
All the best hun
Thank you all. Its 4th day and my pain has gone 70% already. I just feel tender or swollen lips.. I am eating smashed potatoes, Youghurt, oatmeal, mince meat, soft paste of rice (cooked & blended 😄) peas paste( good for protein) & scrubbed eggs and sometimes milk.. Will update you again after few days. Let me know if you guys have any questions
@@NAPL327 thank you
13th Day pain has gone 95%, I can chew meat, eat rice and bread ..almost no pain at all and I don't even feel I am wearing braces.
After going through comment sections i feel much better 🤣🤣thou the pain is reducing 🙏
I got braces 7 years ago and I'm still looking this up
Yeah, I got my braces 2 day’s ago and my teeth literally feel like they’re going to fall out any minute now. I think I’ll be on a liquid diet for a week at least! It hurts sooo bad.
Just get some ice for the bottom and take lot of Tylenol. The only thing I could eat when I got them a year ago was max n cheese and yogurt. I recommend just taking it easy and sleep.
@@j.d.9806 How to use the ice
I use the ice on my lips/where the braces were put
@@j.d.9806 I've been taking tylenol but it barely helps the pain. It brings it down from unbearable to slightly tolerable, which is good but not much relief.
I just got mine like 8hrs ago and it hurts so much i feel like my entire teeth is going to fall out 😭😭😭
Sorry to hear, just know it gets better!
Same
Sameee
Samehere
SAME
Thanks so much because I just got my braces
I just got braces for the first time today and it hurts so much! I’ve literally taken so many pain killers
Plz don't take pain killers
It will slow down the work of brases
@@annapurnaverma5422 oh- I wasn’t aware of that thanks for telling me
@@annapurnaverma5422 ayy ty
id it does hurts i ma just beat the hurt by beating my self so it hurts even more so that i am used to it
@@annapurnaverma5422 how so?
I'm on end of Day 3. I maxed out Tylenol and still in so much discomfort and pain. I'm basically sipping hot water without tea to just to get some relief.
Cold foods and drinks help a lot
I’d get some icecream it really helps especially after you get them tightened
I’ve resorted to literally putting paper towel strips in my mouth to protect my cheeks and gums.
Yeah cold water really helps , but don't bite ice because it's bad for your braces and teeth
Just got mine on and the pain is terrible, all worth it in the end tho!
That’s a great positive mindset to have, hope the pain subsides soon!
Still in pain and hearing some bad words about my braces but soon I'll be back to say I have confidence to smile
Ignore the people making bad comments about your braces. The final result will be amazing and it will all be worth it!
Oh my god actualy thank you so much. i just got my braces and they hurt so bad and so it caused me to not be able to eat food and was scared that it would last for a long time period
I got my upper arch braces in Feb and the lower ones just 2 weeks back... Ughhhhh the pain... And no eating of fav hard food stuffs.. I even swallowed 5 out of 8 separators during the initial treatment days😂
Just got my braces tighten first time 6 hours ago and its started paining like hell and I've my exam tomorrow 😭..nobody can feel my pain
Idk if this is just me but, every time I got back to get a larger wire it hurts so much more than the last time I went.
Taking the ACTs the day after I get my braces wish me luck
Just got mine fitted today and all was well for the first 6hrs or so but now it’s later it’s hurting a bit more😬
I got them like yesterday evening and I had a little bit pain after 3 hours and After that I was not able to sleep in night ,cuz pain was increasing......Today morning I can't have my breakfast,I can't chew 😭
I got mine today I had to have mashed potato for dinner😭😭

@@btsarmyforever7639 And stop self-promoting. Smh.
for anyone despret:
to be fair, this may sound crazy. But if you mix distilled vinegar with water (around a 1: 5 - 10) ratio, it literally helps with the pain so much
edit: I searched it up for any other information but I recommend not doing this very often since vinegar isn't really good for your teeth hence the acidity
yes I am weird for randomly doing this
i’ve had my wisdom teeth removed and my top braces put on and that doesn’t compare ANYTHING to the pain i’m feeling right now. i got my bottom brackets on today, and i’ve been sobbing for 4 hours straight because the pain is so bad. i’ve taken the max amount of extra strength tylenol, and have had ice on and in my mouth al day. the pain is so bad i can’t even describe it anymore. i’m sobbing while writing this comment because my mouth is so sore. any help advice would be greatly appreciated
update: hey i’m not dead still hate my bottom braces though!!
Just remember the pain will go away soon. Try adding some ibuprofen as an additional form of pain relief as it will help with the inflammation. Avoid letting your teeth touch together as that can cause pain, and stick with a liquid diet until it starts to improve.
oh my god I am so sorry
Bro my mouth is also so sorr
I almost had a root canal surgery, plus both top and bottom braces put on yesterday, 🥲
I got my braces wired again and it hurts badlyyyy! So I’m just gonna pray that it feels better tommrow 🙏🏼
It can feel quite painful but it tends to settle down over the next few days. Take some pain killers!
Final adjustment of my braces and I feel like it hurts more then it ever has
Got mine on yesterday and I can’t believe I ate chocolate yesterday. I tried a small twirl bar and sucked on it instead because of how much pain is in my mouth I just hope the pain stops soon
Even though I got my braces 1 to 2 days ago, yes I don’t know when I got them cause it’s 1:30 in the morning rn. The pain is so bad like bad bad, even though I didn’t get them that long ago I just have a hard time thinking that it’s ever gonna get better. Also, there’s the SMALLEST wire sticking out like it’s so small and it’s hurting my cheek so bad. I left my wax in the car yay, this is going great!
Hopefully it’s feeling better now. Pain killers and a soft or liquid diet can help. If a wire is sticking out, if it’s long enough, you could carefully press and bend on it with your finger so it points inwards and is away from your cheek. If not, as you said, a wax blob can be used until your next appointment with your orthodontist. Hope that helps, and hopefully your pain has improved.
Had them on from past 9 months...had lot of pain for around 6 months for 3 days straight after visiting, now the pain is comparatively less and goes away in 1-2 days
I just got my braces yesterday and already broke a bracket on the incisors on the bottom I'm using the wax to hold it and this is good to let me know when the bracket pain will stop
I just got my braces put on and there is this one bracket that’s at like a 15 degree angle from the rest of my checks because of my teeth and it’s really irritating so I hope that subsides
Just got my braces 2 days ago but I find it hard to eat food and am worried
It's like my mollars don't meet when chewing, I instead feel the braces...
Is this safe?
9hours ago my dentist put braces on my teeth and now i am experiencing alot of pain but its okay,mainly when eating,every second i am thinking that my teeth will fall out of my mouth 😭😭
just got my braces today, i was feeling okay at first but after a couple of hours the pain hits. i had a hard time chewing food so i stick to eating porridge or soup. hope the pain goes away soon
Same, I found eating mac and cheese and practically chewing it with my tounge and on the roof of my mouth 😭
I got mine tightened today and I’m literally crying cause the pain is so bad i took Tylenol and I thought sleep would work but no
So I got my bottom row today and my top row like twelve weeks ago with a wire changing in the middle. They also put two seperators on the top row at each corner. I went to school and had small pieces of a burger,milk,yogurt, and pudding. Suddenly after lunch in class I felt a missing separator and realized that I had probably swallowed one. I now have to get it again tmrw so will the pain be worse and take longer to lessen?
If you’ve already had it in once, I don’t think it will be any worse. Perhaps even less as you know what to expect. Remember to stick to a soft diet 😀
I got mine yesterday trying not to cry from the pain
Just got mine today and you they are hurting like none business
I got my braces for a 8 days now and the pain is still here with me. I want to take it off because i have hypertensions and my blood pressure is moving up every time im in pain. I cant sleep and my heart is palpitating everytime im in pain 😢
just got a new wire in and at first it wasn’t bad, i was actually thinking “they should’ve gone to a tighter one” but i am now thankful they did their job bc this pain is enough😭
i’m currently drinking cold water, actually letting it sit in my mouth and it works!! well at least for a little! not the greatest results but there are times where i do not feel pain!
i also bit into a chocolate chip cookie dough chunk (safe to eat not the kind that gives salmonella) and the chocolate chip hurt my teeth sm even though it was tiny asl
edit: not to mention I also have like 3 cuts in my mouth. but i essential brought this upon myself, I was the one begging for braces but it’s most definitely gonna be worth it in the end!!
I got a new wire and a powertrain on my top and bottom braces yesterday. Eating icecream is a pain rn.
Currently dealing with the same exact problem !!!!!!
got my chain today and iam literally crying at the middle of the night😭😭
I had my braces yesterday & it's quite hurting today 😶
Just got my braces and its extremely uncomfortable
Edit: the pain is starting to come out
Im getting my bottom braces soon, I didnt get them all at once due to my deep bite, their worried that ill break a bracket, I’ve seen many comments sayinf the pain is absolutely unbearable, please any tips im terrified for them now. Even knowing the top ones hurt ALOT (for someone who has the pain tolerance of a 10 year old) i couldnt even eat!!! Any tips, ive tried painkillers and ice, they barely work
It hurts so much after 4hrs thankyou sm for this advice
got my powerchain today can't sleep bc of pain
I’ve had my bottom set for about 6 months just got the top and it hurts so much because I have huge bunny teeth
i got my braces first on the top and.next.month in the.buttom but only like 10 percent hurt is that mean its working..
I have braces yesterday and it doesn't hurt at all, is it possible??
I just got my braces tightened and a power chan and they HURT. I needed this
Sounds painful. Powerchains apply more force so it can take a few days to feel normal again. Is it better now?
I just got my second set today, and all was fine. I had to get the little blue paste things in my molars to fix my bite which basically disables me from fully closing my mouth and forces me to chew with the power of two teeth. The sores and pain has kicked in now and I can’t sleep. I’ve tried so much distractions and techniques. I tried salt water rinse, ice water, ice gums massage, everything I could find. I’ve resorted to stuffing paper towels into my mouth to separate my brackets from the gums and cheeks. Any help would be appreciated
i also got the blue paste that keeps me from closing my mouth all the way! or biting fully. which sucks. at first it was fine and i was actually really happy, now my mouth is sore and i don’t even want to talk. i don’t want to eat cause it’s so difficult. really hoping to find a way to get through this
I have the blue stuff too! If u like tacos or stuff like that, try eating taco soup. I don't like soup but I love taco soup.
@@lowkeyalwaysanxious978 hi! I’ve had mine for three months now and it’s gotten a lot better for me. How are yoirs
@@thisismyusernameidk the same! i didn’t know you have to grind them down over time (like with your teeth i guess?) and they’re a lot smaller now and i can eat about everything now as long as it doesn’t risk my brackets breaking!
i just got that too but my ortho told me that it will start breaking down the more you eat
im wearing brace got them on friday the 17th and i waited today and it still hurts do i need to wait 1 more day
After i got my braces, i wanted to eat chips and hard candy even though the doctor told me not to. Well, that didnt end very well. It ended with me crying in my room for 4 hours straight.
yes i got them 2 days ago and it hurts sooo badddd i tried to eat last night and i was balling so bad because of how bad it hurts try to eat mash potatoes those help a lot and if u have wax those also help for the cuts in your mouth
Cold water helps for pain , but remember don't bite on ice it's bad for teeth
me currently watching this after my 3rd brace adjustment. fcking hurts as hell, even just making your upper and lower teeth just on top of one another causes pain.
This is the second day for me and get this thing off me already 😂
Coming back in 2.5 years
Got my braces today, however my upper molars feel like they still have the glue and it is hardened, how can i remove it. It's quite uncomofrtable as I feel them when the upper and lower teeth meet. Heeelp!
OMG! I got adjusted after not going to dentisg after 1 YEAR. THE PAIN IS UNBEARABLE!!!!
Got mine tightened today. So painful I can’t sleep. Luckily I’m getting my off next week. 💀
got mine tightened too but this time i feel like they tightened it to the max😭😭
@@sacagawea2371 every time they tightened mine it always felt like it was more every time and it hurt so much 😭
Congrats
I have under bit and got them yesterday they hurt so bad and I have to wear elastics whenever I’m not eating and school now sucks more with these
The wire on the brackets are scraping my cheek and later it started to stab the inner parts of my cheek constantly whenever I closed my mouth it would stab me again and it bled I finally got a hold of the wax so it stopped but the pain was so bad like excruciating and whenever my teeth touch it stings badly like the pressure also my teeth are now sensitive to cold like even the air made it burn
Got mine today has been 4ish hours my teeth feel itchy and it’s so painful
I finally got my bottem braces and it’s hurting so much😭 I can’t eat anything and even with pain meds it’s killing me😫
My doctor said I got to have them more then 2 years but right know my mouth hurts and my cheeks hurt what do I do I had them for 2 days now
got my braces on 7 July 😣and my back tooth hurt most while eating
Ok so I got my final brackets and the wire constantly hits the back of my mouth does anyone have any advice that I can get to prevent the wire from stabbing me?
4 years with braces and I am suddenly in pain
I got my braces on yesterday and one of my teeth has become slightly loose. Should I be concerned?
I’m 35 and got metal at the bottom & clear at the top today…. My gosh the rubbing in my cheeks are awful so painful, and got bite blocks 😓 not eaten today… how do people eat with the bite blocks
I just gone mine yesterday and it's hurting like heck. I can't do my daily activities properly. It's causing me so discomfort but yeah I hope it will be normal after some days or 1 week!
Sorry to hear! Yeah, get plenty of rest. You will be back on form in no time!
Same i also got my braces yesterday and it's too hurting
I just got them yesterday. The first day was ok but today I can't eat properly and have recurring pain

Thanks for watching! What video should I make next?
Its been 1 dayyyy got mines yesterday and the pain is sooo uncomfortable i want them offffffff rnnnnnnn
🤣 same
I’m having really bad pressure on teeth hurts to touch. Any advice
i had all my wires changed today for like the third time but this time it’s so much worse and i can’t fall asleep😐
9 hours since I first got them, pain was starting to kick in so I swallowed 1000mg of Tylenol and 800 mg of ibuprofen. And it’s manageable. I’ll keep updating this and also put my regime and hope it helps someone.
Also I’m an RN so idk if that gives me credibility lol.
Day 1: -been 2 weeks never experienced pain lol
How long does the pain last?
And is it very painful and cause headache that u couldnt do anything?
@abdo
It last very long
I got them yesterday and ya what he said works.
Did you take 1000mg of Tylenol and 800 mg of ibuprofen together at the same time ?
Idk what to do the pain is terrible my gums are swollen so bad that I’m freaking out it’s been 3 days the turbo blockers are making it worse
those comments make me scared to put braces
i just got mine 8+ hours ago and i feel SO MUCH PAIN. i don’t know what to do 🙁
It’s been half of a year, and my teeth still hurt in the morning without Tylenol
got my brace adjustment yesterday and im in pain after🤧🤧🤧😭
i just got mine a few minutes ago and it doesn't really hurt its just incredibly uncomfy
I'm eating while having the pain, I think its okay now I just got my braces yesterday and now it really hurts
Got self ligated braces today only. Pain is not there still after 8 hours. Bt I got 2 springs for the lateral incisors and bite blocker. Due to the springs, my upper lip is in so much discomfort and going outwards. The bite blocker is disabling to bite. How to comfort this constant irritation ??
@@abby_bellamy oh man the bite blockers !! I got rid of them in May. Oh lord such a relief. I hate them but only those helped to fix my posterior underbite. So can't really complain.
I got my braces done a few hours ago and the pain is unbearable and I’m still crying😢😢
I got 4 spacers for a week. Then I got my 4 teeth removed and after 2 days I got my braces on upper jaw. The next day cheeks felt swollen, my gum is paining . The lower jaw is also paining . This is unbearable. 😬😖
its my 1st day ..the pain is getting unbearable
just got mine tightened and i’m about to rip my teeth out so im going to try and keep cold water in my mouth until the pain is better
psa for any woodwind musicians watching sorry brass idk about you
you CAN play just as well with braces as without. you may need to take a few days off practice, however many you need for the pain to go away, and your embrechoure will be weird and different at first, but you get used to it, and soon youre playing like its not even there! i got top braces yesterday morning and my wire changed for the bottom ones. wish me luck as i have a gig tonight (this is not recommended but things happen yknow)- if this happens to you guys- use your wax, have ice water with you, and definitely bring painkillers. also if ur in too much pain please please dont force it and just try to power through that could be really hamful. i assure you people will understand
Just got mine today
