Hey y'all, long time no talk.......Really sorry about that, things have been super hectic with ballet shows, rehearsals and Christmas!! Anyway, I;m back with a new post: Dealing with Pain. Firstly, congrats on getting your braces, you're on your way to a brand new smile! Or maybe for some of you, you are getting your braces on some and are scared to death. Don't worry, it's not that bad.
Pain differs person to person, for some of you, you may not feel pain till your first tightening. But for others, you'll feel he pain almost immediately. The first thing that pops into your mind would probably be:" Where did I put those painkillers??" Don't reach for those just yet, try some other methods first and if all fails, reach for that painkiller.
**Disclaimer: I am not a professional, these are all from my past experiences only
Now that the disclaimer is out of the way, lets jump right into it.....
Most importantly, don't aggravate it. Do not play with it with your tongue or with a spoon, do not grind your teeth- you will regret it with your life. If after trying all these things but you still can't deal with the pain, go for that painkiller. Eat alot of of cold foods as it will numb your gums. Be very careful while eating. Good luck......Don't forget to SMILE

Now that the disclaimer is out of the way, lets jump right into it.....
- Sipping Water : Believe it or not, this actually works, especially when your front teeth are aching. Just sip water and the pain goes away for a little while.
- Sucking ice/popsicle; The coldness of the ice and the popsicle will give you sweet relief, trust me, and you will forget about your pain ...
- Distract yourself: Play videogames, go swimming, do anything to get your mind off it, the more you think about it, the more you realize the pain.
Most importantly, don't aggravate it. Do not play with it with your tongue or with a spoon, do not grind your teeth- you will regret it with your life.
