I just got braces today and they don't hurt like they're supposed to. Does this mean that the braces aren't effective?

Its not essential always that braces will hurt from very first appointment.It all depends from case to case.Dont worry and trust your orthodontist for the ongoing treatment.

The braces are not always supposed to hurt. Your Orthodontist might have not activated it. You don't decide the effectiveness of the treatment. Let the Orthodontist do his work.
