Here some answers for everyone: Getting them on doesn’t hurt at all. Some parts may be just a bit gross. Afterwords, about 2 hours later, you will feel some pain. The first and second day are the worst, your teeth are still getting used to them, so it may be painful. Drink Milkshakes, ice cream, soup, and other soft foods. About a week later you will be back to your normal self. You will be able to eat normally, and will feel much better.

@@patriciakarenlo I mean I've just only got them a few days ago so I'm not really sure. For the first few days it's been a bit uncomfortable, but it's not painful.

I like how I can relate to all the things mentioned. The ones who will be getting braces do not worry it won't hurt when it is being placed but a few hours later you may get irritated and feel uncomfortable and get bruises and cuts. but eating soft food will help. After a week or so you will get used to it. Trust this 12 yr old girl.
@@da_brat_worldunqie5690 not too bad getting them in, it might feel overwhelming what they appear to be doing as they use modern electric tools but also standard metal ones, the sorest part was the final part when they fitted the wire into the brackets, I think they had to turn or twist a bit of the bracket to fit the wire in. After a few hours of getting them in, the pain started, its been moderately painful for a few hours now and I cant even eat soup. I currently have to drink water by pouring it into the back of my throat (avoiding my teeth and lips) and I'm eating tube yogurts by squeezing them into the back of my mouth then swallowing.
Y’all, don’t be scared. Braces are not painful while getting them on. They might be a little sore when you get them own, but after a few days it should feel normal. If you have questions ask my in the reply’s.
I've had braces for a bit more than 2 years. At the first 5-6 months I didn't experience any pain at all. But after, every time I left from the dentist, I couldn't eat BREAD. The one for toast. RAW bread. My teeth hurt so much. But it's just for 2-4 days, after the pain goes away.
Here’s somethings I recommend. Don’t eat hard food. Soft food should help. Cold food. (popsicles, Icecream,etc.) I’ve had them for a about 6/7 months. They should hurt for the first week or two. If your getting a expander food will get stuck. There should be a pick to clean, get food unstuck. I would recommend cleaning between the brackets.
I can tell you right now that while you are getting your braces put on, the most uncomfortable thing will probably be putting the colored rubber bands onto your brackets. It will feel really tight and unpleasant. I may add that your lips will probably get really dry.
@@RIOTSHIELDB I'm assuming he's talking about the rubber bands you can put on yourself but they don't hurt your gums, (they don't hurt my gums at least) they mostly hurt your teeth.

I got mine about a week ago and they don't hurt anymore; Plus you really only have to wear them at night (unless your orthodontist says otherwise) so you will probably not have to sit thru the pain because you'll be asleep. TLDR: No, it doesn't hurt your gums, It hurts your teeth 😬👈

I'm getting braces next week, I need to prepare myself cuz I'm pretty scared. This video helped a lot and informed me what happens and why it hurts. Thanks guys!🦷
I've had braces for 2 years, but I just got them readjusted like 2 days ago. I had a MASSIVE overbite and my jaws were misaligned, so when I closed my mouth the teeth on my bottom jaw cut into the roof of my mouth. This was fixed by a Herbst appliance, which brought my bottom jaw forwards and coincidentally made my jawline 10 times better. When you first get the braces, the first thing you notice is just the fact that there's so much metal in ur mouth. I remember for the first 2 weeks or so the inside of my mouth was completely sore from cuts and scrapes, which take forever to heal. In terms of the like adjustment pain, it basically feels like someone grabbed your teeth between their thumb and pointer finger and started bending it. It's not really like a sharp pain, it's more of like a light dull throbbing pain. I remember feeling blood rushing through my gums with my heartbeat. I HIGHLY recommend taking an Advil or ibuprofen or tylenol the second you get home, and taking one or two everyday in the morning for the next week or so or until the pain's better. It's probably partly placebo, but I've found it helps a lot and you don't really notice the pain at all. Chewing on things is still gonna be impossible, but at least your teeth won't be aching all the time. The only other pain I can think of is sometimes if they keep my mouth open for a like a really long time to do stuff in my mouth, a incredibly sharp and severe pain comes in my jaw whenever I talk or open my mouth. This pain went away after a few hours tho. If you have like really bad teeth or you can't eat or talk properly because of them, or they look really bad, I'd 100% recommend getting braces or invisalign, but if you only have like 1 or 2 canines that are a tiny bit bucked I honestly don't think it's worth it. Good luck!
@@raparthiprasanna7177 For me it was all covered by my dental insurance so I didn't have to pay anything, but I think it was around 5000$. I'm not sure.
I just got my braces a few days ago. To anyone who is worried if it will pain, it won't. It just takes time and those mouth retractors are uncomfortable. That's all. I hope it helps. Edit: You will have difficulty eating at first too.
To summarize this video, *No bracees do not hurt, if you have frail teeth it might hurt a bit but NO it does not at all hurt!* *Yes after the first week or to it'll be sorta sore.*
They downplay this A LOT. Tooth pain is some of the worst pain you can go through and braces are definitely not just "mild discomfort". It hurts A LOT when they are new and every time they are tightened. Not to mention the canker sores, cut lips and the struggle to eat, speak and play certain instruments. Honestly, it always floors me how normalized braces for the smallest issues (one tooth out of line) have become. Loving parents who normally want their kids to never experience pain don't think twice about it. During a time when children are supposed to focus on their education, have awesome experiences with their friends and get good nutrition, we reduce them to sobbing in bed and drinking soup, unable to participate in sports or get much out of school for a week out of every four. And then say that it's "well worth it" for that "perfect smile". This is the only cosmetic treatment that we routinely subject children to. People that won't let their kids wax their eyebrows will get them braces. Orthodontics sure did a good job convincing the public that there is a "need" to fix every imperfection when that "need" wasn't there previously. Even people in old movies (from the 60s/70s) don't have perfect teeth. No one cared back then, unless, of course, the teeth were really bad.
I know this comment was posted ten months ago, but I wanted to say that I think the majority of this is because a lot of adults seem to genuinely not see kids as people until they reach eighteen. I hear people refer to kids as "students" when not talking about school settings, and it's frankly a bit dehumanizing. Nobody casually refers to adults as "workers." It's like we're not even able to form thoughts. Also I just got my braces yesterday and I am in excruciating pain 🥲
For anyone who’s anxious (to get braces) because of the comments down here, I would say that I got mine today and trust me they don’t hurt at all. They’re just exerting a little pressure which exacerbates when you bite or chew. This isn’t UNbearable Edit: ok, I admit they do hurt ouchh
@@Jana-qy2id my front teeth pain the most I can’t even bite anything I have to eat everything with my molars. I think the dentist tightened the teeth too much
@@Jana-qy2id It’s completely normal. I either use my tongue to mash the food or cut it into small bites first then just swallow. I can’t wait to take this thing off 😭
Having braces is like a nightmare! I remember the first time I wore, I have been restricted from eating all kinds of hard foods. Which I missed a lot. One thing that I learned during my braces period is that, never dislike any food because the food you disliked will be first thing you’ll be craving for the most, when you never get the chance to eat. It might not sound like at big deal. But trust me on this, it will be worse than you think.
just finished my first day of braces and here’s my experience putting them on is not painful just very uncomfortable and u can taste the glue on your teeth. the pain starts to settle in several hours after and that when it starts to hurt. but luckily for me i have quite a high pain tolerance so it wasn’t that bad. as of now it’s just pretty uncomfortable and it feels very weird to chew and eat stuff.
Thanks for the video! I’m getting my braces probably in a few months. I’m gonna give y’all the best color options and worst color options in my opinion. Best: teal, pink, navy blue, purple, and black. Maybe clear but definitely not the best on the list. Worst: green, white, brown, and yellow. These can make ur teeth look more yellow, or look like there is food stuck in your teeth, and you would want to avoid these colors if you can. You would also want to avoid sticky and hard foods. Eat soft foods but not too chewy. Let’s say If you got chick fil a you could blend your food together to make it softer. Or cut up some things. I wouldn’t blend all your food cause some stuff wouldn’t mix well. But you know the obvious not to eat choices such as steak and stuff. Hope this helped you a bit!
They hurt like heck at first but definitely worth it. I had spacers put in between my molars a week before my braces went on and my back teeth hurt pretty bad. When the braces go on and pull the teeth in, its the front ones that will hurt. Good news is the pain might last for a week or so the first time, few days the second, less the third, etc, etc. Had mine for 2 years and by month 3-4 i felt no pain, even after my appointments. Again, worth every single second of the pain tho. Its really not too bad.
@@rubanight its not that painfull when u get braces it feels a bit wierd en does annoy a bit for like a week and can also feel a bit painfull but after that it feels normal again So theres nothing to be scared of
I had braces they're sometimes in comforable. But if its the most painful thing y'all felt then y'all never felt pain pain Edit: I read that wrong lol. It says most pain I've felt in 2 years
Ok y’all if your scared, I just got my braces recently. Getting them on was pretty easy and painless. They did put a heating thing that’s pretty hot and it kinda hurt but that’s it. Now, after. Oh boy. Of course everyone has different pain tolerance but I was in PAIN and still am kind of. So I recommend getting some ice cream, popsicles, pain medicine (please), and that’s pretty much it. The first day it’s just on and off pain the second and third day we’re so bad I was almost crying. But ice and ice cream, and cold water helped a lot. Along with Ibuprofen every 3-4 hours. Today isn’t as bad. Pain should go away in a week or so
I don't feel any pain. Mild discomfort while my dentist does the adjustment but after that, no pain at all. The dentist even changed the wire to a much thicker one to tighten my teeth. I bought a lot of orthodontic wax but haven't used it at all. So don't be afraid to get braces if it is needed and advised by your dentist.
Me half panicked, half vibing here on the day that I'm getting braces apparently the rubber bands are supposed to be in for a week or two but mine have only been in for a day and they h u r t
OH I forgot about this!! I got them! The process did not hurt, it was just quite a bit of pressure put on your teeth. The only thing that kind of hurt was the lip separators they put in to make it easier to put the actual braces on. It did hurt and was kind of annoying to brush/eat for a few days after- but it's fine now! Flossing is really annoying just because it takes a long time ^^
i have braces and they do not hurt when getting them done. they hurt the first couple weeks but after a month it doesn't hurt so bad. its just annoying when it cuts ur cheek or having to clean ur teeth every time u eat
It is not a DULL soreness. Or at least it wasn’t for me. It was THE WORST pain or soreness I had ever felt and mind you I had broken my nose before getting my braces on
The most uncomfortable thing for me is when the dentist puts this super blue plastic thing to keep your mouth open.. omggg like it stretches your mouth wide lol
for some reason after getting my braces tightened it hurts more than when i got them on. but maybe it's because i took pain killers after i got them on lol
Okay, this is my honest answer: Getting them on does not hurt but the retractors are extremely uncomfortable. After getting braces about 2 hours later you will feel uncomfortable and wanting to take them off. The soreness hurts a lot and I’ve experienced it. The first and second days are the absolute worst. What I hate about braces is the soreness. Then eating will be a challenge so stick to soft foods like mashed potatoes, soups pasta etc. You can eat ice cream, it help a bit with the soreness, After a week you should be perfectly fine. Hope this helped! 💜💜
Spacers hurt so much and I couldn't even eat Mac n cheese and now that that's over I have braces ;-; so sore help but so far spacers are worse but Idk this only my first day
@@lu-vo8dh my teeth are really sore right now and i just took some tylenol. i cant bite at all and i made the *horrible* mistake of trying to chew gum 😭 but im doing okay
Foods to eat while getting your braces on/ tightened. (You won’t be able to chew for 3-5 days.) Oatmeal Soft pasta Mashed potatoes Yogurt Smoothies Pulled pork Meatloaf Cold water Ice cream These are just some suggestions and the things I ate, but any soft food is great! *DONT FORCE YOURSELF TO EAT TOUGH FOODS.* your teeth with become stronger on there own!
Thank you so much I’m getting braces soon, is purple a good color for braces or they don’t have it sorry for asking you cause I’m kinda scared to ask the dentist 🪥
If you are getting your braces at Orthodontic Experts we have purple and it is a great choice! Do not be afraid to ask your orthodontist any questions you have, they want you to feel comfortable! Check out this video to learn more about braces colors: ua-cam.com/video/lJNtS2uYmIc/v-deo.html
my braces did not hurt at all except when they actually put on the wire and bands my teeth are only sensitive for the first day or two when i got them tightened
guys, this video is super correct, i have braces and i just got my wire changed and got my bottom braces today and it hurts on the bottom but the top doesnt hurt because my teeth bones on the top are used to it already.
My expirence : my dentist put some rubber spacers in between teeths for 2 days. I found it very very painful and uncomfortable . I couldn't chew anything or brush my teeth . Doctor removed the spacers after two days and Put on the braces. During the procedures it didn't hurt at all but I was really uncomfortable . After getting it done almost after 2 or 3 hours it started getting a bit hurting but whenever I tried to chew food it hurted like hell 😂 . After a week I got adjusted with the braces and started eating normally But after 3 months my dentist started to tighten the braces so hard . It literally hurt so much that I regretted my whole decision of getting braces 😂 but it has been almost a year since I got my braces and I gradually became adjusted with it ... The main cons are getting food stuck in braces 😂 especially when your not eating from home it is a problem 😃 its really good thing that we get to wear mask to cover my mouth 😉
i got my braces on 3 weeks ago.. it took 5 days for my teeth to not hurt as bad. i have never felt pain so bad- i would wake up in the middle of the night, and just cried my ass off. they hurt so bad
It will be fine for the first hours, but then it will hurt really badly for 3-4 days. I couldn't eat anything solid. And it also depends if you are only getting the braces on top or below, because if it's below then you're completly fucked. I ended sick because I wasn't eating so prepare some soup and medicine to feel less pain because you'll need it
I was crying the next morning when I got my braces because i had to take my medicine every 8 hours I was 2 hours late and you have to eat before drinking it was the worst😭
It’s been 2 months and the pain goes away after 3 or 2 days and every month you get them adjusted and you get to pick new colors or keep them the same colors also it’s the best to eat on the side of your mouth that’s how you have more varieties of food choices ALSO eat soft FOODs also after you drink your medicine(yes there is a medicine to make the pain go away) make sure to keep track of time because I usually have to drink it every 8 hours also you don’t have the pain everyday until the next adjustment.
Thank you so much for the video, I'm getting my braces in two weeks, I'm still nervous, but this video made me feel better. I'm thinking about getting a blue and a purple bands, is that a good choice?
i wear braces, heres the short answer: yes heres the long answer: the first time you get your braces put on, it doesnt hurt for about 2 hours until you are sent into a misery similar to hell for about 2 - 3 days. the rest of the time it will hurt only slightly throughout the rest of the time you have your braces.
I had too much pain after putting on bands for 2 days, after which I thought it'll be relieved, but after putting on the braces the pain continued in the same evil way, it's already my 4th day of braces on and the pain is more or less the same.
it hurts a lot when u get your braces tightened especially when they change to a thicker wire(a thicker wire does hurt more than wearing rubber bands a lot)
This makes me feel a lot more better now that I know that the pain is only bad at the beginning I'm getting my braces soon and I was really worried on how painful it was gonna be
What foods are the best when you first get your braces? And how long does the process usually take? I get migraines easily if I don’t drink enough water, is there a way to drink water with the cheek guards on?
An appointment scheduled for braces to be put on is one hour, but you will not have the cheek guards on the entire time. If you are worried about not being able to drink water during your appointment, please talk to your doctor ahead of time so they can do their best to accommodate you for your appointment. Any cold foods will help with braces pain! Drinking cold water will help too! To learn more about foods you can eat check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/9mqgvcyC-eM/v-deo.html
When I had my braces, I never felt any soreness. I was expecting it to hurt bad because I’ve watched a lot of videos about it and the reaction of people that had their braces but I didn’t. I was able to eat normal food. There’s a little discomfort but it’s nothing compare to the comments that I’ve read on this video. Is it just me?
I had an overbite, crowding, and crossbite - one of my front lateral incisors was completely behind my bottom teeth. I don't remember how long it took to get the braces on. Once they were on it started with a dull ache for the first day, but for the next 12 weeks or so there was a sharp, almost electric pain every time the top and bottom teeth would touch. I couldn't use my teeth fully for months after I got the braces on. Depending on how messed up your teeth are, braces can hurt anywhere from a little to a *lot*. After the first three months for me I could use my teeth again and they would only hurt for a few days after getting them tightened, after the first year or so they stop hurting once they get tightened. They started by pulling the two top first bicuspids to make room (this was painless), then moving my teeth apart with springs and those braided wires (not sure what they're called), then once there was space for the crossed tooth, maybe six months, they put a bracket on the crossed tooth and started to pull it forward. It took months, but I remember just how excited I was when that tooth came in front for the first time, I was ecstatic. I no longer had shark teeth! Of course I couldn't bite down all the way for about a year after getting braces because of that tooth but after the first year it was much better. Braces are horrible, especially at first, and if you don't take care of them you will have permanently stained teeth. But as long as you take care of them and fight through the pain it makes using your teeth so much better in the long run and I'm glad I did it. So long story short, my most intense pain lasted about three months, but my teeth were *really* messed up. It won't take that long for most people.
Here some answers for everyone: Getting them on doesn’t hurt at all. Some parts may be just a bit gross. Afterwords, about 2 hours later, you will feel some pain. The first and second day are the worst, your teeth are still getting used to them, so it may be painful. Drink Milkshakes, ice cream, soup, and other soft foods. About a week later you will be back to your normal self. You will be able to eat normally, and will feel much better.

How are they? :) Just wondering because it's been 10 months.
Now it's 10 mnth how is it feeling
I've had braces for 2 years, but I just got them readjusted like 2 days ago. I had a MASSIVE overbite and my jaws were misaligned, so when I closed my mouth the teeth on my bottom jaw cut into the roof of my mouth. This was fixed by a Herbst appliance, which brought my bottom jaw forwards and coincidentally made my jawline 10 times better.

I remember for the first 2 weeks or so the inside of my mouth was completely sore from cuts and scrapes, which take forever to heal. In terms of the like adjustment pain, it basically feels like someone grabbed your teeth between their thumb and pointer finger and started bending it. It's not really like a sharp pain, it's more of like a light dull throbbing pain. I remember feeling blood rushing through my gums with my heartbeat. I HIGHLY recommend taking an Advil or ibuprofen or tylenol the second you get home, and taking one or two everyday in the morning for the next week or so or until the pain's better. It's probably partly placebo, but I've found it helps a lot and you don't really notice the pain at all. Chewing on things is still gonna be impossible, but at least your teeth won't be aching all the time. The only other pain I can think of is sometimes if they keep my mouth open for a like a really long time to do stuff in my mouth, a incredibly sharp and severe pain comes in my jaw whenever I talk or open my mouth. This pain went away after a few hours tho. If you have like really bad teeth or you can't eat or talk properly because of them, or they look really bad, I'd 100% recommend getting braces or invisalign, but if you only have like 1 or 2 canines that are a tiny bit bucked I honestly don't think it's worth it. Good luck!
How much cost plz tell me
@@raparthiprasanna7177 For me it was all covered by my dental insurance so I didn't have to pay anything, but I think it was around 5000$. I'm not sure.
@@boopnose5503 tq
I just got my braces a few days ago. To anyone who is worried if it will pain, it won't. It just takes time and those mouth retractors are uncomfortable. That's all. I hope it helps.
Edit: You will have difficulty eating at first too.

I have braces and it’s PAINFUL
4:07
To summarize this video,
*No bracees do not hurt, if you have frail teeth it might hurt a bit but NO it does not at all hurt!*
*Yes after the first week or to it'll be sorta sore.*
Yeah usually when you get them on they might you might be bit uncomfortable but most people after a few days, it starts to be sore
They're the most physical pain I've had in my entire life
They downplay this A LOT. Tooth pain is some of the worst pain you can go through and braces are definitely not just "mild discomfort". It hurts A LOT when they are new and every time they are tightened. Not to mention the canker sores, cut lips and the struggle to eat, speak and play certain instruments.
Honestly, it always floors me how normalized braces for the smallest issues (one tooth out of line) have become. Loving parents who normally want their kids to never experience pain don't think twice about it. During a time when children are supposed to focus on their education, have awesome experiences with their friends and get good nutrition, we reduce them to sobbing in bed and drinking soup, unable to participate in sports or get much out of school for a week out of every four. And then say that it's "well worth it" for that "perfect smile". This is the only cosmetic treatment that we routinely subject children to. People that won't let their kids wax their eyebrows will get them braces. Orthodontics sure did a good job convincing the public that there is a "need" to fix every imperfection when that "need" wasn't there previously. Even people in old movies (from the 60s/70s) don't have perfect teeth. No one cared back then, unless, of course, the teeth were really bad.
I know this comment was posted ten months ago, but I wanted to say that I think the majority of this is because a lot of adults seem to genuinely not see kids as people until they reach eighteen. I hear people refer to kids as "students" when not talking about school settings, and it's frankly a bit dehumanizing. Nobody casually refers to adults as "workers." It's like we're not even able to form thoughts.
Also I just got my braces yesterday and I am in excruciating pain 🥲
For anyone who’s anxious (to get braces) because of the comments down here, I would say that I got mine today and trust me they don’t hurt at all. They’re just exerting a little pressure which exacerbates when you bite or chew. This isn’t UNbearable
Edit: ok, I admit they do hurt ouchh

@@Jana-qy2id my front teeth pain the most I can’t even bite anything I have to eat everything with my molars. I think the dentist tightened the teeth too much
@@Jana-qy2id It’s completely normal. I either use my tongue to mash the food or cut it into small bites first then just swallow. I can’t wait to take this thing off 😭
Having braces is like a nightmare! I remember the first time I wore, I have been restricted from eating all kinds of hard foods. Which I missed a lot. One thing that I learned during my braces period is that, never dislike any food because the food you disliked will be first thing you’ll be craving for the most, when you never get the chance to eat. It might not sound like at big deal. But trust me on this, it will be worse than you think.
Yes this happens
Oh gosh I'm in the line for braces here
yes you are right
just finished my first day of braces and here’s my experience
putting them on is not painful just very uncomfortable and u can taste the glue on your teeth. the pain starts to settle in several hours after and that when it starts to hurt. but luckily for me i have quite a high pain tolerance so it wasn’t that bad. as of now it’s just pretty uncomfortable and it feels very weird to chew and eat stuff.
Thanks for the video! I’m getting my braces probably in a few months. I’m gonna give y’all the best color options and worst color options in my opinion. Best: teal, pink, navy blue, purple, and black. Maybe clear but definitely not the best on the list. Worst: green, white, brown, and yellow. These can make ur teeth look more yellow, or look like there is food stuck in your teeth, and you would want to avoid these colors if you can. You would also want to avoid sticky and hard foods. Eat soft foods but not too chewy. Let’s say If you got chick fil a you could blend your food together to make it softer. Or cut up some things. I wouldn’t blend all your food cause some stuff wouldn’t mix well. But you know the obvious not to eat choices such as steak and stuff. Hope this helped you a bit!
They hurt like heck at first but definitely worth it. I had spacers put in between my molars a week before my braces went on and my back teeth hurt pretty bad. When the braces go on and pull the teeth in, its the front ones that will hurt.
Good news is the pain might last for a week or so the first time, few days the second, less the third, etc, etc. Had mine for 2 years and by month 3-4 i felt no pain, even after my appointments.
Again, worth every single second of the pain tho. Its really not too bad.
Who is watching this because they getting braces soon
Braces have given me the most pain I’ve had in like 2 years
Your scaring me. I don't want braces anymore.
@@rubanight its not that painfull when u get braces it feels a bit wierd en does annoy a bit for like a week and can also feel a bit painfull but after that it feels normal again So theres nothing to be scared of

Ok y’all if your scared, I just got my braces recently. Getting them on was pretty easy and painless. They did put a heating thing that’s pretty hot and it kinda hurt but that’s it. Now, after. Oh boy. Of course everyone has different pain tolerance but I was in PAIN and still am kind of. So I recommend getting some ice cream, popsicles, pain medicine (please), and that’s pretty much it. The first day it’s just on and off pain the second and third day we’re so bad I was almost crying. But ice and ice cream, and cold water helped a lot. Along with Ibuprofen every 3-4 hours. Today isn’t as bad. Pain should go away in a week or so
Yes braces do hurt a lot. You will feel pain after every tightening appointment. Especially when you get rubber bands added.
I had my braces since 2018 and I still have them now. It took a little while to get used to but I'm fine with it.
I don't feel any pain. Mild discomfort while my dentist does the adjustment but after that, no pain at all. The dentist even changed the wire to a much thicker one to tighten my teeth. I bought a lot of orthodontic wax but haven't used it at all. So don't be afraid to get braces if it is needed and advised by your dentist.
me 5 seconds after the video getting ice-cream, wax and salt water because I just had my braces tightened

And this is my second day with braces. Amazing 😆😆
Only if your pain tolerance is low other wise you just have sensitivity through out the first couple months.

apparently the rubber bands are supposed to be in for a week or two but mine have only been in for a day and they h u r t
Update!!!
OH I forgot about this!! I got them! The process did not hurt, it was just quite a bit of pressure put on your teeth. The only thing that kind of hurt was the lip separators they put in to make it easier to put the actual braces on. It did hurt and was kind of annoying to brush/eat for a few days after- but it's fine now! Flossing is really annoying just because it takes a long time ^^
@@drizzlingskies8988 Neat, haha. Everyone is either "IT'S UNBERABLE" or "didn't hurt lol"

I done this too searching lots of things about braces before getting it.
i have braces and they do not hurt when getting them done. they hurt the first couple weeks but after a month it doesn't hurt so bad. its just annoying when it cuts ur cheek or having to clean ur teeth every time u eat
yeah
My braces pain only lasted for 3 days

Yes, but depending on how bad your teeth are, is how painful it'll be
It is not a DULL soreness. Or at least it wasn’t for me. It was THE WORST pain or soreness I had ever felt and mind you I had broken my nose before getting my braces on
I have this thing called cross-bite and I need braces to make it all be good
I had cross bite as well, but I had a retainer first then braces

"Beauty coming from pain" That wht i need to tell ☺️👍...
I have my braces also it's almost one yr and Seven months. I'm blessed that there's a big changes
They only hurt for the first few nights and that's it
The most uncomfortable thing for me is when the dentist puts this super blue plastic thing to keep your mouth open.. omggg like it stretches your mouth wide lol
i got mine and they don’t hurt at all , i just feel pressure.
Got braces 20 hours back, no major pain, just some discomfort
They definitely not hurt! Don't worry!
for some reason after getting my braces tightened it hurts more than when i got them on. but maybe it's because i took pain killers after i got them on lol
the fact i had braces and took them off but still watch these-
Lol
Okay, this is my honest answer:
Getting them on does not hurt but the retractors are extremely uncomfortable. After getting braces about 2 hours later you will feel uncomfortable and wanting to take them off. The soreness hurts a lot and I’ve experienced it. The first and second days are the absolute worst. What I hate about braces is the soreness. Then eating will be a challenge so stick to soft foods like mashed potatoes, soups pasta etc. You can eat ice cream, it help a bit with the soreness, After a week you should be perfectly fine. Hope this helped! 💜💜
me watching this even though my appointment is in 2 weeks..
The painful thing is making spaces before putting braces on. Rubbers are put in between molars to make space that is very irritating at first
@jacquline nicholas same. Gonna get my braces in a week so i was just preparing myself for that by watching this video.
Eating hurts a lot can only eat soft foods
i have them in right now and i was supposed to get my braces today but my gap closed, so we’re back at the pain
Same I just got spacers in 😭
Spacers hurt so much and I couldn't even eat Mac n cheese and now that that's over I have braces ;-; so sore help but so far spacers are worse but Idk this only my first day
Thank u , I was so scared of having braces, but now , I'm so excited to go have them tomorrow
Glad to help! Congrats on getting your braces!
since i have braces, i quickly realized that after 1-3 days of having braces on and wires on, they're not bad
I just got them today and they really don’t hurt. It’s only a little uncomfortable during the process. But no where near hurting.
For me it started the day after
I get braces at 10:00 AM today.
Edit: I got my braces.
Edit again: these hurt like fucking hell

I had to have then for a bit over a year and they only hurt when you got them tightened.

Foods to eat while getting your braces on/ tightened. (You won’t be able to chew for 3-5 days.)
Oatmeal
Soft pasta
Mashed potatoes
Yogurt
Smoothies
Pulled pork
Meatloaf
Cold water
Ice cream
These are just some suggestions and the things I ate, but any soft food is great! *DONT FORCE YOURSELF TO EAT TOUGH FOODS.* your teeth with become stronger on there own!
Thank you so much I’m getting braces soon, is purple a good color for braces or they don’t have it sorry for asking you cause I’m kinda scared to ask the dentist 🪥
If you are getting your braces at Orthodontic Experts we have purple and it is a great choice! Do not be afraid to ask your orthodontist any questions you have, they want you to feel comfortable!

I went from 4 braces on the top to 8 braces on the top and 10 on the bottom. It’s been about 28 hours and it is a living hell.
I went from 4 braces on the top to an entire mouth filled of braces 💀 and nothing hurt when I had 4 now I just hate the pain after getting all braces
them: some discomfort
me: this should be know to be clickbait, I have braces....its hell
No really
It even hurts to eat guys dont wear it unless you actually want to go through this for pwrfect Teeth
Is it worth the pain🤧
guys, this video is super correct, i have braces and i just got my wire changed and got my bottom braces today and it hurts on the bottom but the top doesnt hurt because my teeth bones on the top are used to it already.
Pain caused by braces is less it will go away very soon but the cuts and wound it cause is very painful...rest they are worthy
My tooth is already hurting before I get mine on because of seeing these videos and comments
Idk bout y’all but tightening is PAINFUL.
I thought that scratching off the glue is painful?
My expirence : my dentist put some rubber spacers in between teeths for 2 days. I found it very very painful and uncomfortable . I couldn't chew anything or brush my teeth . Doctor removed the spacers after two days and Put on the braces. During the procedures it didn't hurt at all but I was really uncomfortable . After getting it done almost after 2 or 3 hours it started getting a bit hurting but whenever I tried to chew food it hurted like hell 😂 . After a week I got adjusted with the braces and started eating normally
But after 3 months my dentist started to tighten the braces so hard . It literally hurt so much that I regretted my whole decision of getting braces 😂 but it has been almost a year since I got my braces and I gradually became adjusted with it ...
The main cons are getting food stuck in braces 😂 especially when your not eating from home it is a problem 😃 its really good thing that we get to wear mask to cover my mouth 😉
It's more of the pressure you feel after they put braces on your teeth, mine lasts for only 2 days.
i got my braces on 3 weeks ago.. it took 5 days for my teeth to not hurt as bad. i have never felt pain so bad- i would wake up in the middle of the night, and just cried my ass off. they hurt so bad
Oh noo😭
Chill your scaring me
when I got them when I was little i cried even though it didn't hurt
I'm nervous i'm getting my braces this friday
It will be fine for the first hours, but then it will hurt really badly for 3-4 days. I couldn't eat anything solid. And it also depends if you are only getting the braces on top or below, because if it's below then you're completly fucked. I ended sick because I wasn't eating so prepare some soup and medicine to feel less pain because you'll need it
@@Nerhy okay.. thank youu !
Everybody: talking about braces
Me: YO WHY DOES THIS GIRL SOUND LIKE ONE OF THE VOICESOVERS ON STORY TIME ANIMATED?!

Also me: *hmm… interesting..*
I was crying the next morning when I got my braces because i had to take my medicine every 8 hours I was 2 hours late and you have to eat before drinking it was the worst😭
Update please 🙌
Can you share you’re experince , kinda nervous here
It’s been 2 months and the pain goes away after 3 or 2 days and every month you get them adjusted and you get to pick new colors or keep them the same colors also it’s the best to eat on the side of your mouth that’s how you have more varieties of food choices ALSO eat soft FOODs also after you drink your medicine(yes there is a medicine to make the pain go away) make sure to keep track of time because I usually have to drink it every 8 hours also you don’t have the pain everyday until the next adjustment.
Thank you so much for the video, I'm getting my braces in two weeks, I'm still nervous, but this video made me feel better.
I'm thinking about getting a blue and a purple bands, is that a good choice?
Blue and purple is a great choice! Good luck with your braces treatment!
I went through braces and got scared told it does not hurt TRUST ME IT HURTS I GOT MY 2 MONTHS AGO
I am getting my braces tomorrow, and i was pretty scared, but i was relieved quickly when i saw this video.
Short answer: first couple weeks yes, after that you get used to it.
i wear braces, heres the short answer:
yes
heres the long answer:
the first time you get your braces put on, it doesnt hurt for about 2 hours until you are sent into a misery similar to hell for about 2 - 3 days. the rest of the time it will hurt only slightly throughout the rest of the time you have your braces.
I had too much pain after putting on bands for 2 days, after which I thought it'll be relieved,
but after putting on the braces the pain continued in the same evil way, it's already my 4th day of braces on and the pain is more or less the same.
How was it after tightening of wire?
it hurts a lot when u get your braces tightened especially when they change to a thicker wire(a thicker wire does hurt more than wearing rubber bands a lot)
google: Do braces hurt? 'Yes'
Bing: Do braces hurt? :
This makes me feel a lot more better now that I know that the pain is only bad at the beginning I'm getting my braces soon and I was really worried on how painful it was gonna be
2 weeks ago I got my braces off
I was terrified about the pain
What foods are the best when you first get your braces? And how long does the process usually take? I get migraines easily if I don’t drink enough water, is there a way to drink water with the cheek guards on?
An appointment scheduled for braces to be put on is one hour, but you will not have the cheek guards on the entire time. If you are worried about not being able to drink water during your appointment, please talk to your doctor ahead of time so they can do their best to accommodate you for your appointment.
Any cold foods will help with braces pain! Drinking cold water will help too! To learn more about foods you can eat check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/9mqgvcyC-eM/v-deo.html
there's no need for a 4 minute video, the answer is YES.

Maybe your teeth is not that crooked 🤧
@@azyy6482 it depends on your teeth or age, it hurts alot if your teeth is crooked like hell
I had an overbite, crowding, and crossbite - one of my front lateral incisors was completely behind my bottom teeth. I don't remember how long it took to get the braces on. Once they were on it started with a dull ache for the first day, but for the next 12 weeks or so there was a sharp, almost electric pain every time the top and bottom teeth would touch. I couldn't use my teeth fully for months after I got the braces on. Depending on how messed up your teeth are, braces can hurt anywhere from a little to a *lot*. After the first three months for me I could use my teeth again and they would only hurt for a few days after getting them tightened, after the first year or so they stop hurting once they get tightened.
They started by pulling the two top first bicuspids to make room (this was painless), then moving my teeth apart with springs and those braided wires (not sure what they're called), then once there was space for the crossed tooth, maybe six months, they put a bracket on the crossed tooth and started to pull it forward. It took months, but I remember just how excited I was when that tooth came in front for the first time, I was ecstatic. I no longer had shark teeth! Of course I couldn't bite down all the way for about a year after getting braces because of that tooth but after the first year it was much better.
Braces are horrible, especially at first, and if you don't take care of them you will have permanently stained teeth. But as long as you take care of them and fight through the pain it makes using your teeth so much better in the long run and I'm glad I did it.
So long story short, my most intense pain lasted about three months, but my teeth were *really* messed up. It won't take that long for most people.
The answer is so simple....
Yess alot
Thanks you so much! So now I know what I’m expecting! Now I’m not as worried! :)
