Sometimes it can hurt a lot, especially if it is your first time getting them tightened. Usually the first time you get them tightened they tighten it a lot...and then the dentist asks you, "Does it feel uncomfortable?" You probably wouuld say yes because it doesn't bother you then but after that it hurts a lot, right when you leave the dentist's office....GOOD LUCK and BE PREPARED FOR IT. The pain usually makes you tired so be very prepared and take a lot of pain killers. Contact your orthodontist right away if you feel that you can't sleep, feel depressed, or are too tired. These are common side affects in getting your first braces tightened or put in.

∙ 12y agonah its this that the put new wires in i dosent hirt at all
Actually, it does hurt. But getting new rubberbands is not as bad as getting new wires!! Your teeth will be sore for a few days but if you take ibprophen or advil or Tylenol it should go away! :D

∙ 12y agoI had braces for a good couple years, and they were tightened almost every month. It varied visit to visit, but I usually found it pretty painful while they were in the process. After a few days, though, I would adjust. Sometimes it would take longer to get used to it, and other times there was hardly any pain. If you have a low pain tolerance, headgear, or rubber bands it'll probably hurt more.

Are braces sore and do they make you bleed?
The braces itself aren't sore, except the first day you get them. Braces aren't "sore" but if you play sports and get by n the mouth it doesn't feel good, if you get hit hard enough, it could make your lip bleed. Tighting doesn't hurt that much, it just feels like pressure on your teeth. So to conclude, I would say braces aren't so bad as everyone explains that they are..... they don't exactly feel wonderful either, you may bleed and yes braces may hurt off and on. Hoped this helped a little bit!!

They can hurt for a couple of days to a couple of weeks, depends on the amount of braces and the person.
Do braces hurt while putting them on?
To me the braces doesn't hurt. Before thinking of getting braces think of a person putting super glue on your teeth it doesn't hurt that bad. Then you can choose your color for your braces 1 time every month. But if you put your braces like when you are 17 it hurts more so I recommend you to do your braces as soon as possibleI took out my braces already. =]
