After braces have been put on, it is usual for teeth to be sore for up to 24 hours. This initial discomfort may even last 3 to 4 days. Paracetamol will help to relieve this discomfort. A soft diet is also recommended.
During the first few weeks of treatment, your lips and cheeks may become sore. If it is troubling you, place your Orthodontic wax on the offending bracket. If you are out of wax, please speak with one of our friendly team, they will be delighted to assist you.
If your plate or retainer has been lost or broken it is essential to contact us immediately. We will then be able to organise the repair or replacement for you.
