Braces and four teeth pulled!!? PLEASE READ!?
When I had braces, I got 3 teeth pulled, all in one appointment. That in itself was a little much-I%26#039;d suggest dividing it into 2 appointments if you can. Braces don%26#039;t really hurt-the doctor simply presses the silver brackets on each tooth and then a wire goes through the brackets. Once a month or so, he will tighten them, which can hurt a tiny bit, but it%26#039;s no big deal. The initial strain only lasts for a few seconds and then you feel normal again.





Best of luck :)
Reply:Before you go to the dr. to get braces take advil . It does hurt but you%26#039;ll get use to them after a while, and pulling out teeth does hurt, but it depends on the dr. if they numb your gum with novicain or not.
Reply:I had the EXACT same thing.


The braces hurt for the first few days, and the teeth don%26#039;t hurt at all.
Reply:The braces only hurt when they tighten them and the teeth puling doesn%26#039;t hurt.
Reply:calm down. i had braces and have gotten teeth pulled;; its not that bad





bfore getting braces take some advil, so it wont be as sore. and jsut eat soft food afterwards





they do numb you and trust me you dont feel a thing. the needle only feels liek a pinch and then you dont feel anything else
Reply:Of course they numb you. It isnt that bad getting teeth pulled. My son had 6 teeth pulled before he got his braces. Now he has them off and has a beautiful smile:) There will be some pain. But it isnt that bad, so no worries:)
Reply:yes it hurts -- bad.
Reply:no they wont hurt


i have had braces for 2 years now


bout to get them off =]


they dont numb it


but trust me it wont hurt when their putting it on


they will hurt the night u get them on


and u wont be able to eat anything for atleast 2 days





it will all be worth it when ur teeth are straight
Reply:I had the EXACT same procedure about 3 months ago.


I got my braces on, then about 3 or 4 weeks later I got 4 teeth pulled, 2 on top 2 on bottom, and that was a bit nerveracking/painful. It doesn%26#039;t hurt during the pulling because yes, your mouth is numbed, but its very uncomfortable after. For about 3 days.





And yes, braces do hurt for at the most 1 week. Its really weird the first time because you dont expect your teeth to hurt and then like 2 hours later all of a sudden you bite on some food and its like holy Sh!t OWW!


lol





BUt dont you worry bowt a thing sweetie, you will be sooo happy once you see your teeth moving along after a few months after youir teeth are out.
Reply:1. Yeah this happened to me about 10 months ago and you will get 2 appointments, 2 teeth out for each appointment.


2. Braces will hurt alot for the first week so try to take some painkillers like paracetimol, I would suggest that you try eating soft foods something like porridge or soup when you get the braces.


3.You get a few injections in your mouth, anaesthic I think. The dentist will then wait for about 5 mins for the medication to settle in and then pull your teeth out. It%26#039;s scary if you think about it but you wont feel anything other than pressure. I guarantee you wont feel any pain at all.
Reply:I can only offer help with the teeth pulling but not braces:





Ive had 3 teeth pulled (not wisdom) i just had a local anesthtic no sedation nothing and was fine,i had it all done in one vist and it lasted about 30 mins for all of the teeth to be taken out,





They will numb for the teeth pulling which is a small pinch





Felt slightly sore afterwards so took normal pankiller and was fine





Really hope it goes well,


Gd Luck
