7. How do braces feel?
The most common question regarding orthodontic treatment is what do
braces feel like? Orthodontic therapy uses special appliances (braces)
to move teeth with gentle pressure. When braces are originally placed,
or when adjustments are made, your teeth and gums may feel tender
initially. This is nothing to worry about. Like anything new, please
expect a short period of adjustment. Reported sensations vary from
patient to patient, but if any minor discomfort does present itself,
it usually does not last for more than two or three days.
