a couple years ago my brother had braces and the one day i was messing around near him and accidentally hit his braces with my pointer finger knuckle...it was bleeding

My braces are off now, for me, it only hurt the first 3-5 days once I first got them and after I got them tightened, then it was bearable. Use some wax and take some tylenol until the pain goes away.

I never had them but both my sister do I say just don't make the anything like jellies,chewing gum and pretsels and then the pain won't get worse but oyu have to get used to them before the normal pain goes so don't think you have them at all.

thats what i did nonname!..... and oddly... it works

I feel your pain man try eating soup

try to ig nore with something you like other than computer reading always works for me

Try eating any kind of noodles, you should be able to chomp that.

I had em. they'll hurt for like a week or two then they'll stop. until you get them tightened. then they hurt again, but each time a little less.

I agree.

That is what happened to me.

Hewf, I'm at the end of my dental procedure.

Have you tried gum?
