Is Your Brace Being A Pain?

We get it—brace pain isn’t fun. The good news? It’s temporary, and there are easy ways to manage it.
- Wax to the Rescue: Orthodontic wax is your best friend for soothing sore spots.
- Cold Is Cool: Sip on a cold drink or use an ice pack to calm inflamed areas.
- Stick to Soft Foods: Mashed potatoes, soups, and smoothies are your go-to comfort meals.
- Take a Break: If you’re in pain after an adjustment, over-the-counter pain relievers can help or try using a topical Gengigel Gel which is great at alleviating discomfort.
Remember, this discomfort means your braces are doing their job! If it feels like too much, give your orthodontist a shout.
