It hurts me really bad 😭

I'm seeking some advice on dealing with discomfort from my braces. I recently got them tightened, and the pain around the bonding points is quite intense. I've tried some remedies, but nothing seems to ease the ache. Any suggestions on how to alleviate this pain?I've tried the usual suspects—ice packs, over-the-counter pain meds—but they're not providing much relief.

So, I'm turning to you, for some tried-and-true methods to ease this discomfort. Any home remedies or tips from your own experiences that you can share? I'm all ears (well, technically, teeth) and would be incredibly grateful for any help you can offer! #braces #rubber #bracesadvice #AskLemon8
