Rhiannonc says :

I got my braces on (this is now friday-and to be completely honest , braces DO NOT hurt while they are being put on but a few hours afterwards when the wire begins to move your teeth , they become slightly achey, you could even use the word ''tender''. your orthodontist should give you wax and believe me this is a life saver ! with mine i also got a interdental brush , a sample mouthwash a sample toothpaste and a few leaflets , my braces now feel fine and i am getting use to them .

Hope this Helped you !
