Braces or orthodontic treatment is basically done to put malaligned teeth into the right places where they should be present naturally..wearing braces inetially can cause some amount of pain as the wires and brackets put some force on the teeth which is very minimal & hence vanishes in a weeks time as in your case.This pain is absolutely normal and is well tolerated. I hope your orthodontist must have given you post operative instructions about this treatment.
Next Steps
you should keep the teeth & brackets clean as they attract a lot of food debris which may cause gum problems,visit your orthodontist regularly or as the appointments given to you
Health Tips
in case of any query, feel free to ask your dentist.

Hello, this is normal when the wires are changed or activated some amount of pressure is felt when tooth movement occurs. Gradually the pressure decreases as the required amount of movement has occurred and now your teeth are stabilizing.
Next Steps
Visit your orthodontist regularly and dont miss appointments.
Health Tips
Follow instructions given by your doctor to get early and good results.

Yes it is quite normal immediately after tightening the braces u will feel pressure and little pain . Once the teeth start moving that pressure will go after that bone formation has to occur on the new area that's why you have to wait for one month for next appointment
