-- Posted by hellomikie92 at 7:55 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 Today I got my braces on, and  my mouth is sore as heck ,and I only had them on for 7 hours.  When you had your braces on for the first time:  HOW DID YOU HANDLE IT? HOW SORE WERE YOU? WHAT DID YOU HAVE TO EAT? -- Posted by Tits McGee at 7:56 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 I was sore for a few days afterwards. Get used to it, because every time they get tightened, they're sore for a few days. -- Posted by ocho cinco at 7:56 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 they hurt fucking bad. and i mean bad. i couldnt eat anything but soup for a couple days. same thing whenever i got em tightened. fuck braces sucked ass -- Posted by DanaLovs15 at 7:57 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 Best advice: 1.) Pain goes away 2.) It gets less wierd 3.) When u get them off, its TOTALLY worth it And yeah, mine really hurt too! -- Posted by XxemochickxX at 7:58 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 when i had mine on i ate mashed potatoes, yougurts, oatmeal, mac and cheese, and cheese grits, but only until the pain went away. -- Posted by puppie11 at 8:00 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 i ate a lot of yougurt. i thought bread would be ok...but it wasnt. it hurt! i know how u feel but give it like a few days and u b ok -- Posted by hellomikie92 at 8:06 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 Quote: from puppie11 at 8:00 pm on Jan. 7, 2009 i ate a lot of yougurt. i thought bread would be ok...but it wasnt. it hurt! i know how u feel but give it like a few days and u b ok bread isn't okay!!!???? dang! lol heck eating mac and cheese is hurting my mouth.
