[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone gotten adult braces lately and regretted the decision? I was so excited to fix the gap in my teeth and correct my bite but I just got braces yesterday and am in so much pain. I ended up getting ceramic braces instead of metal since that is what my ortho recommended but I seem to be having some sort of reaction to them. The inside of my cheeks and upper lips are totally swollen since they’re rubbing up against the braces. I look like I got lip injections. I’ve tried salt rinses and putting wax on them to help relieve the swelling. I had metal braces as a kid and do not remember having this type of reaction. I’m not sure if my body just needs to adapt or what is going on. I guess I’ll go back to my ortho if this doesn’t calm down in the next day or two. Has anyone else experienced problems with braces?
