ok i got braces today...and my teeth are hurting bad...for some reason especially my front 4....they almost feel loose but they aren%26#039;t...what is up with that...oh and how long after they get put on can u expect lots of pain
Braces teeth pain?
it%26#039;ll take some time to get used to them. trust me. that feeling you have should subside within a month, give or take some days. it%26#039;s cuz your teeth are being moved. so anyways, for a couple weeks, start off by eating stuff that you don%26#039;t have to chew much and gradually go up to foods that you can chew. that%26#039;ll give your teeth time to adjust to the pressure of the braces and chewing. also do this everytime they tighten the braces (they do this so you%26#039;re teeth straightening will progress). trust me, i%26#039;ve gone through that not too long ago. so again, just give it time and that feeling will subside.
also, you%26#039;re teeth won%26#039;t really hurt on their own. it%26#039;s just when they meet when you talk or chew. i don%26#039;t really know why, they just do. (i had a lisp for a while when i had my braces! haha!) but again, like with the food, it just takes time to get used to. after first getting braces, you%26#039;re teeth will be pressured, and talking/chewing makes it feel worse, and that%26#039;s the pain you will feel. but don%26#039;t worry. the pain isn%26#039;t %26quot;coma-inducing%26quot;. you%26#039;ll be able to withstand it (unless you can%26#039;t tolerate pain at all).
Reply:you will feel sore for about a week , maybe longer since you jus tgot them. it will progressively get better though.
Reply:they feel like that because you just got that and your teeth are moving!
Reply:Like a week at first. But it will get better.
Some advice. Wear your retainer... you will regret it if you dont.
Braces are the best thing that happened to me. So the pain was worth it.
Reply:I never got pain. :)
Honestly, I miss my braces.
They should only last about a week/couple days
Gradually getting less painful.
Reply:I remember that pain! Your teeth will hurt for a few days each time you go to the orthodontist. A painkiller, like Advil, really helps.
Reply:From my experience, braces always hurt the worst during the first week or 2. This is when you start to get used to this outside pressure on your teeth. After that, it doesn%26#039;t get worse, but you do get periodic tightenings, which is less painful than the first week. Hope your teeth turn out nice and even!
Reply:Take advil or motrin every 4 to 6 hours, it really helps alot! The pain will be bad for about 2 days.. and then each time you go back for an adjustment, I recommend taking the ibuprofen before you go to the orthodontist, that way you have nipped the pain before you get it..
dont%26#039; worry.. you will survive.. those teeth hurt because they are moving so you have a super smile someday soon.
Keep smiling and don%26#039;t forget to floss.. now that is a pain!
Reply:Probably for the next 1-2 days you%26#039;ll feel pain. Its like that every time you get them tightened. My advice is to take one or two advils right BEFORE you go to orthodontist, then by the time your done the pain will be less severe. Just stick it out kid and just picture yourself in like 5 years (probably less) with a nice set of pearly whites!!
Reply:take some tylonel or other type of painkiller. eat soft stuff (like smoothies, etc)
braces should hurt for about a week or 2 after u get them. i had braces for a while. I HATED THEM!! they would make these small adjustments and my teeth would hurt bad.
Reply:your teeth are loose your braces are forcibly moving them...
hurting is good it means there is progress... it will go away in about a week until then eat foods that don%26#039;t require chewing
no pain no gain
Reply:its normal cause youre not used to it. give it a week or two
Reply:well, i usually had pain the first few days after each appointment that the orthodontist tightened them. take same tylenol and only drink milkshakes or smoothies right after. i know the pain; it%26#039;s sore and throbbing! but it will all be worth it in the end! :)
Reply:I had braces for 5 years and I hated going to the orthdontist for them to tighten them up. Your teeth hurt because they are being forced to move to where they need to be. I would eat soup as the pain can be real intense and took advil for the pain. Wait till the start putting in the elastics that go from the front of your mouth to the back . It hurts something fierce. The pain should subside in a couple of days to a slight pressure and nothing at all in a week.
Reply:Ok, you%26#039;re taking this one from a pro. I%26#039;ve been in these badboys for 9 years...more time in them that out of them (in my whole life...it%26#039;s sad. My teeth aren%26#039;t crooked, I just grow so dang fast.)
It%26#039;s really not that bad. It%26#039;s pretty intense pain for a day or two...and then moderate pain on the third or fourth day, and on the fifth day it%26#039;s usually fine. I suggest eating soft foods for your meals (applesauce, pasta, etc.) You won%26#039;t be able to eat anything hard those first few days.
You can expect this cycle after you get your braces re-tightened too.
Reply:i have braces now..and i remember when i first got them i had the same loose feeling....its b/c the braces are casing ur teeth to shift and move so it can be straight...it feels tight in between ur teeth but loose altogther...dont worry this is normal and it happenes to everyone...it will be ok after 2 to 3 days ..a week at the most...for the first time u get braces.. the pain that is,,,
for me it was 2 days...and slowly i was able to eat normal again...u know if u cant eat normally if u try to bite ur fingertip and it hurts like hell...sry abt the rambling...but i hopee this helped. after a while when u get used to the braces.. it wont bother u at all..u may get a tight or loose feeling everytime u go and get ur braces tightened..
Reply:It%26#039;s the feeling of your teeth being moved and tight that is making your front four teeth feel loose.
The extreme pain should end in about three days, but it will continue to bother you for a week or two. Then, you%26#039;ll probably get used to the feeling of braces. :) Hope you feel better.
Reply:The pain can last quite a while for some people. My sister got them the day before Thanksgiving...haha, pretty not cool seeing as she couldn%26#039;t eat. They do hurt though, from what I hear, I haven%26#039;t gotten them yet but am getting them over spring break...ah!
Reply:its natural for braces to hurt for the first week or so. It will go away soon, but for the pain drink really cold water as often as you can. i think it kinda numbs your mouth a bit. I really dunno, but it works.
If the pain is really bad then try panadol or nuerofen.
Reply:mine only hurt for 2 days.... try to eat some mashed potatoes or mushy things... no gum or anything... try PBhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?...
Reply:Ohhhhh man... I remember that pain. I feel for ya. It will be pretty sore for the first few days, but you will get used to it. I know that%26#039;s a weird thing to say, but the idea of braces is to move your teeth, so they are kind of moving all the time. You get used to it, don%26#039;t worry. Take some tylenol, and if the pain doesn%26#039;t at least lessen after a few days, call the orthodontist and ask if maybe it should still be that bad or if they can prescribe some painkillers.
Good luck!
Reply:they feel loose because they are getting pulled to another position. i rember when i had them the first month the pain was horrible. but after the pain was hardly noticeable. so you well get used to it.
Reply:i give it a week and make sure to take pain killers, the pain will go away thoug and once you get them off you will look sooooo fine. like i had my in seven grade and got them off at the end of seventh and i got so many complaments, like the guys with fall in love with you. ahah it worked for me.but seriously teeth are a main attraction.
Reply:u shouldnt hav pain too long if it really hurts take advil i know it kinda sucks but think how great ur teeth will look after lol
Reply:It will be sore/uncomfortable for the next 3 days or so. Take some Tylenol or Ibuprofen. Chew gum to help relieve the soreness. I%26#039;ve had braces on for about 7 months now and everytime it gets tightened (monthly), it gets sore for about 2-3 days
Reply:because the braces is a new thing for your teeth and they are putting pressure on them, you fill feel sore and it might be quite painful depending on the condition of your teeth. so for two or three days, don%26#039;t eat stick foods like caramel or hard foods like chips because it might hurt a bit. so you might want to switch to softer foods like cereal with milk, and puddings, and such.
Reply:your teeth are hurting cus they r moving
your not used to it so its weird
and you can expect lots of pain if you dont take pain killers
XD
but eventually you will get used to it
and it will be so normal that when you get them off it feels just as weird as when you got them put on
Reply:a week but it should stop in a week:}
Reply:After each adjustment you should expect 2 or 3 days of tenderness. The first day obviously will be the worst. Take some Motrin and eat softer foods. I don%26#039;t have the most fond memories of the pain involved. But it wasn%26#039;t drastic. It was more of a dull aching. But I am glad I got it done. As an adult, I know for certain how much of an impact your teeth can have. First impressions last for a long time. And a nice smile helps a lot. You%26#039;ll get through it. Just take the proper amount of pain killer recomended on the bottle and don%26#039;t think about it.
Reply:urg i know what you mean! I got my braces on like 6 months ago. The first week they are sore and its hard to eat but like after a week or two they really don%26#039;t hurt. You get used to them ,and then when you have to get them tightened they are a little sore for a couple days. Ya and when I first got mine it felt like my teeth were like gonna fall out. its normal.
But ya braces suck!!!!
Reply:they feel loose because your teeth are moving when that first happened to me it scared me but then my orthodontist explained it to me and with the how long to expect pain it really differs between people and what kind of braces you have like my friend connor his hurt for like a week and a half but mine only hurt for barely 2 days like i said it just depends on your orthodontist, the kind of brackets and wires he uses, etc.

Sinusitis (teeth pain)?
i have the sinusitis problem and a few weeks ago pain in my teeth start does it come from the sinusitis, cause dentist said i have nothing... please help!!!!!
Sinusitis (teeth pain)?
It is a sinus problem if they bother you and the teeth checked out fine.See an ENT specialist
Reply:Unfortunately, yes...bad sinuses can cause teeth pain...your top teeth are sometimes connected to a sinus or sinuses...
You should be put on an antibiotic for the infected sinus....taking motrin or ibuprofen will also help...
Meanwhile, try to find a different dentist.
Reply:When my sinuses get inflamed...my teeth hurt. From the dentists point of view...there is nothing wrong.
See an allergist.
Reply:the roots of the upper molars some times are in the maxillary sinus. If you have sinusitis, your teeth can pain, refereed pain. Dont get your tooth removed or treated, treat the cause which is the sinus.

Wisdom teeth pain from removal?
Went to the dentist today and they said I need oral surgery to remove my wisdom teeth. I wanted to know how bad is pain? How long would I have to take off from school/work? What can/can%26#039;t I eat? How long does it take to recovery? Any other necessary things I need to know??

Wisdom teeth pain from removal?
The amount of pain that you feel varies based on how impacted the teeth are (that is, how far they have emerged from the gum tissue), how smoothly the surgery goes, and your general reaction to anesthesia.
My best advice is to ask to be put under for the surgery. My oral surgeon gave me numbing pads so that I didn%26#039;t even feel the insertion of the needle in my arm. He also gave me laughing gas to calm me down, and before I knew it, I was waking up from the surgery.
My advice would be to ask your oral surgeon to include a few drips of Gravol in your IV during the surgery. I find that this greatly reduces any nausea that you may feel from the anesthesia and/or blood in your mouth. It is also important that you fast, as recommended by your oral surgeon, before the surgery, as this will ensure that your stomach is empty. Get plenty of rest the night before and try to book a morning appointment so that you do not get a headache before surgery from fasting all day.
I did not feel significant pain at all after my extraction, despite my tooth being impacted and surrounded by a cyst. I am allergic to codeine and demerol (two commonly prescribed pain relievers), so my doctor gave me a prescription for Motrin. When you first get home, you may feel perfectly fine - no pain at all - as many oral surgeons inject local anesthetic at the site of the extraction. It is VERY important to begin taking your medication right away, as this will give you a head-start for when the freezing begins to wear off.
Your first day will be spent mostly sleeping off the anesthetic. It is important to change the gauze and alternate cool/warm compresses as your doctor recommends. I found that resting with your head slightly elevated from the rest of your body helps to slow the bleeding. Also, breathing through your nose causes you to generate less saliva, thus slowing the bleeding even more.
I was fully recovered from my procedure within three days. I had my surgery on a Friday morning and returned to school with no problems on Monday morning. If anything, I found that the stitches were inconvenient and the swelling was unpleasant. My cheeks were very sensitive to the touch and I had noticeable yellow bruising around my lower jaw (nothing that a little liquid make-up can%26#039;t cover though!). I did not experience any sort of extreme pain, other than when one of the sites became infected...but that%26#039;s a whole other story, and very unlikely to happen to you if you avoid getting any debris at the extraction site and gurggle often with salt water.
Foods that I found worked great (...some of these may sound bizarre):
- soup (mostly broth for the first day, soft veggies/noodles on the second, third, etc.)
- jello
- pudding
- applesauce
- yogurt (no fruits with seeds - these can easily sneak into the extraction site)
- mashed potatoes
- donuts/timbits (For some reason, I found that Krispy Kremes were the best, as they almost melted in my mouth.)
- soft cooked veggies (carrots work great)
- pasta salads (noodles slide right down your throat)
* NOTHING can be HOT or COLD. Everything you consume must be at room temperature.
* NOTHING can be consumed through a straw.
* AVOID dry, crumbly foods that do not stay contained in your mouth - i.e. crackers, chips, etc.
Other things to remember:
- DO NOT brush near the extraction site.
- DO NOT swirl liquids violently around your mouth or spit with force. This can upset the blood clots.
- DO NOT consume any COLD or WARM foods. Everything must be at room temperature.
- DO NOT drink through a straw. This can also upset the clots.
- DO NOT fiddle with the stitches with your tongue - although I know it%26#039;s tempting! They are disolvable and will begin coming out (painlessly!) anywhere from the fourth day after the surgery to nearly two weeks after. Be patient!
- DO gurggle with salt water starting around your second or third day. This prevents infection. Your oral surgeon may also give you a syringe to squirt Luke-warm water at the site. This is very helpful in preventing infections and removing debris as well.
Anyhow, hope that gives you an idea of what to expect, at least the basics anyway! It%26#039;s important to be comfortable with your oral surgeon so that you can ask him/her about any of your concerns beforehand. The oral surgeon may also provide you with some pamphlets to read up on.
Just remember to keep a positive attitude. Having been through several oral surgeries, I know that being positive helps your recovery immensely! Know that many other young adults sympathize, but have also survived the experience. Best of luck - I%26#039;m sure you%26#039;ll come through it just fine :D
Reply:well, im sorry to say that it does hurt. the procedure itself doesnt hurt...but the after affect hurts about as much as pinching your hand in a door. that lasts for about 10 minutes...and comes every so hours. you probably want to take off for a week-2weeks depending on how long you take to recover. only eat foods like soups and icecream at all times. last thing you may want to know is to buy plenty of popsicles. they really do the trick.
Reply:Everyone has a differant experience. Two of my teeth were not quite ready to come out and two were- so all of them were pulled. It was painful. I had black eyes- but it was only because they had to really struggle to get two of them out. So if yours are ready- it shouldn%26#039;t be that bad. Plan on soft foods- mashed potatoes, pudding, soup, stuff like that. And DO NOT drink out of a straw or smoke. I made that mistake and the pain from a dry socket was not fun! You should have it done on a Friday and you should be good to go on Monday. Good luck!
Reply:i have had mine removed. they made me take a week off rom work school. i could only eat liquid foods , mashed potatoes, ice cream, pudding, soup broths, etc... no hard foods for a while. they gave me the dissolving stitches so i wouldnt have to go back in to get them pulled out.
they put me to sleep, and i didnt feel a thing, they gave me pain killers , but i only used them when i got back from surgery, after that it didnt bother me enough to take them .
also DONT eat popcorn... i had pop corn like 2 weeks after i could start eating solid foods and still a lil piece of pop corn got stuck in a fold that hadnt healed properly then it was stuck , THAT HURT... other than that just rest take your meds if needed and only eat and drink liquids.. .
Reply:It doesn%26#039;t really hurt when it is being done because of the anesthetics, you can just feel the pressure on your teeth. When the anesthetics wear off it will begin to ache quite a bit but just take something like Advil and you should be able to deal with it. Maybe take 1-2 days off work if you are in a lot of pain. Good luck!
Reply:Take a week off from school %26amp; work. The narcotics the dentist prescribed for me made me sick as a dog. 800mg ibuprofen works perfectly, IF you%26#039;re no longer bleeding.

Wisdom Teeth Pain!?
I%26#039;m getting all four of my wisdom teeth pulled and I was wondering if anyone had experience with the pain reliever tramadol (Ultram)?
Wisdom Teeth Pain!?
Had 1 pulled, to pain, until the pain killer wore out, then had to run to pharmacists to fill prescription for pain

Wisdom teeth pain!?
hey im a 17 year old girl, i have been getting my wisdom teeth now for about a week or two, im getting my upper left and my lower left but the upper one is killing me! any1 have any ideas on how 2 rid the pain : (
Wisdom teeth pain!?
If they are breaking through the skin you might want to get some bubble gum (not minty gum, but the big stuff that turns hard after you chew it a while) - and keep chewing it on your teeth till they break through....it%26#039;s like a baby and a teething ring. you can also get the ambusol that%26#039;s made for children teething and put it on your gums while they hurt.... it hurts now, but once they are all the way through it shouldn%26#039;t be so bad.
Unless you need them removed because they are pushing your other teeth...then you need to go to the dentist and have them out.
Reply:Get it pulled as soon as you can the longer you wait the more it is going to hurt.
Reply:get them pulled out girl!!!!!
Reply:hey, maybe that is why my jaw is killing me ... in 17 too ... i think im gettin the bottom left one in
but i take 2 asprin in the morning and then about noon take 3 ibuproferins and about 4 or 5 take 3 more =)
you%26#039;ll be set for hours of pain free lovely-ness

Reply:get some orajel . . . but you could always get the doctor to remove them if the pain doesn%26#039;t go away
Reply:You could have the same problem I did with my uppers. If they are only partially through the skin food and drink get under the gum line and rots out the back of the tooth that you can not get to to brush.
Go get them pulled. At least the uppers if they are bothering you. It is not that bad and you will feel SO much better.
If you did have what I did and you let it go it will get infected and infect your jaw which will hurt a thousand times worse!
BTW, if the regular oragel stuff doesn%26#039;t work....I know it sounds bad....but go to your local adult store....well send someone in for you...and have them buy a tube of strawberry anal eze. It is the same thing as oragel only ten times stronger. My dentists sent me in for it until he could set up an appointment to pull them. It worked wonders!
Reply:you can apply heat or cold to your cheek, i would say take IB more so that Tylenol. I don%26#039;t know about the chewing, but if they are impacted, even if they make it throught the gum line, you will have to have them pulled. You should see a dentist if the pain doesn%26#039;t stop. He can x-ray and send you to a surgen if you need them removed. If you don%26#039;t have dental insurance, don%26#039;t worry the surgery will be filed under health ins. as long as they are impacted.
Reply:READ the section in the book at the bottom.
Much pain is from muscles below is an example of what may help (based on headaches).
Begin with a couple swigs of molasses or a couple of bananas daily - magnesium (which regulates many things in the body) and potassium (a needed building block for muscles).
Drink at least 1/2 gallons of water per day. Running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil is the analogy the head of neurology at UCDavis told my husband about 10 years ago.
Now to the cause - muscles - your back, neck shoulders and head have tender spots. They are knots in the fibers of the muscles called trigger points. It makes the muscles tight which makes them press on nerves and other things causing the pain.
The cure - start with a professional massage, you will also want to go back over any place you can get to 6-12 times per session up to 6 times per day rubbing (or lightly scratching on your head) every where that is tender until the knots go away. The place where the skull connects to the spine press up under the edge of the skull (to get to those muscles).
For more information read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches what to do and where the pain comes from.

Reply:Get it pulled as soon as you can the longer you wait the more it is going to hurt.

Reply:get some orajel . . . but you could always get the doctor to remove them if the pain doesn%26#039;t go away
Reply:You could have the same problem I did with my uppers. If they are only partially through the skin food and drink get under the gum line and rots out the back of the tooth that you can not get to to brush.
Go get them pulled. At least the uppers if they are bothering you. It is not that bad and you will feel SO much better.
If you did have what I did and you let it go it will get infected and infect your jaw which will hurt a thousand times worse!
BTW, if the regular oragel stuff doesn%26#039;t work....I know it sounds bad....but go to your local adult store....well send someone in for you...and have them buy a tube of strawberry anal eze. It is the same thing as oragel only ten times stronger. My dentists sent me in for it until he could set up an appointment to pull them. It worked wonders!
Reply:you can apply heat or cold to your cheek, i would say take IB more so that Tylenol. I don%26#039;t know about the chewing, but if they are impacted, even if they make it throught the gum line, you will have to have them pulled. You should see a dentist if the pain doesn%26#039;t stop. He can x-ray and send you to a surgen if you need them removed. If you don%26#039;t have dental insurance, don%26#039;t worry the surgery will be filed under health ins. as long as they are impacted.
Reply:READ the section in the book at the bottom.
Much pain is from muscles below is an example of what may help (based on headaches).
Begin with a couple swigs of molasses or a couple of bananas daily - magnesium (which regulates many things in the body) and potassium (a needed building block for muscles).
Drink at least 1/2 gallons of water per day. Running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil is the analogy the head of neurology at UCDavis told my husband about 10 years ago.
Now to the cause - muscles - your back, neck shoulders and head have tender spots. They are knots in the fibers of the muscles called trigger points. It makes the muscles tight which makes them press on nerves and other things causing the pain.
The cure - start with a professional massage, you will also want to go back over any place you can get to 6-12 times per session up to 6 times per day rubbing (or lightly scratching on your head) every where that is tender until the knots go away. The place where the skull connects to the spine press up under the edge of the skull (to get to those muscles).
For more information read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches what to do and where the pain comes from.

Does grinding your teeth lead to tooth pain? Why?
I recently went to the dentist and he found two cavities. They weren%26#039;t, however, in the teeth that were bothering me when I went in. I%26#039;m having pain in the left side of my mouth. I%26#039;ve recently acquired the nasty habit of grinding my teeth. Could this possibly be what%26#039;s making my teeth hurt? Any suggestions on how to stop? (I know that%26#039;s alot of questions; thanks in advance.)
Does grinding your teeth lead to tooth pain? Why?
The grinding of teeth causes pain because:
1) it chips tiny little pieces of tooth off and that makes the tooth more sensitive.
2) it puts little microscopic cracks into the tooth and that makes the tooth more sensitive.
3) it %26quot;rocks%26quot; the tooth back and forth in it%26#039;s socket. This really irritates the nerve coming out the end of the tooth and also irritates the tissue holding the tooth in place.
So, go to your dentist and have a night guard made. It should be smooth and hard. It won%26#039;t keep you from grinding, but will keep you from doing damage. DO NOT buy one at the drugstore. They are soft. The teeth do not slide easily. They do not stop damage to the teeth, AND they cause damage to the TMJ, (temporal mandibular joint), and you do not want to go there! If you damage your TMJ you are in for a lifetime of problems!!
Reply:The constant rubbing of the teeth causes it to sort of %26quot;erode%26quot;.
Below is a link with ways to stop grinding.
Reply:Yes, a mouth guard from the drugstore or from ur dentist. It stops the teeth from making contact. Grinding chips, wears down ur teeth and moves ur teeth, causing damage. U hurt because u are exerting so much energy rubbing ur teeth back and forth during the night that ur jaw muscles are sore. Get a mouthguard. It%26#039;ll stop the friction and plus May retrain urself to stop.
Reply:it will where down your teeth making them weak and lose if you do it to much

Wisdom Teeth Pain?
I%26#039;m starting to grow wisdom teeth. What%26#039;s the best way to stop the pain in my mouth?
Wisdom Teeth Pain?
well if I were you I would set an appoint to an oral surgeon ASAP to get them removed. the longer they are in there the more damage it MAY cause later on. Crowding of teeth... bleeding of gum causing infection... plus its easier to remove when they havn%26#039;t punctured through the gums. Cost me about 2k to have them all removed I think... probably less but I forgot. It was a pretty penny but you get to keep the teeth to put under the pillow lol. maybe the tooth fairy will compensate. but yea, earlier out better
it hurts too :( good luck
Reply:Ambesol works really well. Get the adult strength because the one made for kids is pretty week. Are you 21 or older? If so you may be ready to get them removed already. I didn%26#039;t get mine out until I was 27, but mine grew slow and my dentist didn%26#039;t want to take them until they hit nerves. So when the wisdom headaches started he pulled them. If you have dental insurance go get an xray..if you don%26#039;t have any an xray shouldn%26#039;t be more than $60 and is worth the money.
