hmm.. how long u guys have to wear braces from the 1st day to the day wearing retainer?Originally posted by toyota-corolla:yea, when is straighten, you wont feel much pain.

every appointment to tighten braces will results in a few days of pain.... not acute pain but those swollen swollen kind of pain that gives u a headache
my braces took me about 1.5 years i think... i go to the dentist faithfully every month... if u skip and drag ur appointments u're going to need to wear it longer
i now barely remember the pain -
did you complain about the pain when your dentist first put in the metal bands?

tell yourself pain is good.Originally posted by mystee:today is the 2rd time appointment after i put on my braces one month ago... the 1st time was ok... not really painful.. but today, the dentist put on 4 metal bands on my chewing teeths... the pain was unbearable when he stuck them into my teeth. can feel my gum swelling... now the metal part of the bands is cutting/ rubbing my gum even when my mouth is not moving... super uncomfortable! feel like gng back and ask him to jz take it out manz.... !!! is it normal to be like tat? any remedies???
btw, i've got a really good method. when i had my braces for the first few weeks, my gums were fcuking sore. so i just close my mouth and do the "biting-on-something" movement and hold it there. it'll be painful but when you let go of it few secs later, you'll feel better.
i sort of love the soreless leh. braces are not that unbearable lah. want nice teeth right? suffer lor. -
