Is braces painful?

During the first week after the wires are inserted, the patient may experience some pain and discomfort. After a few days, the pain and discomfort disappear by themselves. If the orthodontic appliance enlarges the cheek and gum teeth, your dentist will provide you with a solution to this problem.
Sometimes, due to the discomfort and pain, the patient may take simple pain relievers such as acetaminophen.
