Is it normal for one side of your mouth to become swollen a couple days after getting braces?

Yes it can be normal especially if the dentist worked on that side of your mouth the longest. Try swishing with warm, salt water (approx. 1/2 tsp. in a small glass of water.) This is good for keeping the bacteria down. If this doesn't help in a couple of days it's a good idea to revisit your dentist. Good luck Marcy

Braces DO NOT hurt being put on at all ... what they do is put a gel on your teeth and harden it with your brace on then after all the braces are harden they put the bracket in but THEY DO hurt a little the first couple of days or so but taking medication will ease the pain :)
