No pressure after putting braces

2021-06-08 16:08:32
It's been 10 days since I put my braces in my upper teeths. I had felt some pressure during first two days and thereafter I'm not feeling any pressure at all. In fact I am even able to eat semi solid food without any pain. Is it normal? Or has the wire become lose?  I wear self lighting braces.

Yea,it's totally normal , even in every appointment after activation or modification of wire, u will feel mild to moderate pain which will subside within 2-3 days. In Orthodontic treatment ,we use mild and continue force only to get results .So, no need to worry at all.
Health Tips
Mindful eating ,u should know what to eat ,what not to eat . Do proper brusing twice a day, also use interdental brush to clean food particles lodged between the tooth and wire..
