My braces are really causing my teeth to hurt. What is the best thing to take for the pain?

I have had my braces for a while. Here recently, my teeth have started hurting. What should I take for the pain? Aspirin or Ibuprofen.

I believe Ibuprofen works best for dental pain.
Reply:Ya I have that same problem. Just wait it out and make sure not to eat food that is to hard for your teeth. Pains will go away though.
Reply:ibuprofen...my mom's a doctor and i hahd braces... it gets better i promise
Reply:If you didn't get them tightened recently then maybe something else is wrong. I wouldn't know what it may be. Maybe call your orthodontist.
Reply:I like the fast dissolving Tylenol. If you are under 18, please stay away from asprin. Swishing with warm salt water is a good immediate relief, as well as baby teething ointment.
Reply:tylenol.you can take up to 4 {500mg.} at a time if your over 18.
Reply:put wax on them it will releave the tension
Reply:Do NOT take aspirin! Go with ibuprofen or acetaminophen (Tylenol). Aspirin could potentially thin out your blood too much causing your teeth and gums to be more susceptible to bleeding. This is especially a problem since you have braces.





Hope this helps =)
Reply:try massaging your gums lightly with your toothbrush That helps for me , it may be painful to do so do it before bed , you should feel better in the morning. :)
Reply:i used to take ibuprofen %26amp; suck on ice. those 2 years were like HELL!!! my braces caused my teeth to hurt when i got them tightened %26amp; made me talk kinda weird. %26amp; whenever i ate, food kept getting stuck in them. i'm sooo glad i don't have them anymore.
