Most children receiving treatment use fixed braces, usually made of steel, ceramic, or porcelain. Since braces straighten teeth using gentle pressure, some patients may experience sensitivity or their gums may become red. The degree of a person’s discomfort depends on the method of treatment and the person’s physiology.
Usually, the use of braces does not cause pain to the patient during orthodontic treatment. But sometimes, at the beginning of labor, the mouth may feel uncomfortable when using this remedy. Your child’s braces may initially cause painful spots to appear on the gums or lips, but this should not take long and the person’s gums and lips will heal.
