I got braces and my mouth hurts anything i chew and temperature wise hot stuff hurts my teeth. what do i eat?

Softer foods: It is common for braces to feel uncomfortable for the first couple of days. Eat softer, room temperature foods like: eggs, mac & cheese, cut up hamburger or hot dogs, yogurt, apple sauce, etc. You can also take Motrin or advil (ibuprofen) same dosage as for a headache. Things should return to normal in 3-4 days.

Advil (ibuprofen) and soft diet: What you are experiencing is temporary. Once teeth start moving, the discomfort will go away. Meanwhile you can take advil or tylenol (acetaminophen) , stay on soft diet and be patient.

Soft foods: For the first week after you get braces, you may be able to eat only soft foods ( like soups ) . If a specific brace or wire keeps poking you in the mouth, you should call your orthodontist.

Cool, soft stuff.: In a nut shell, nothing hard, gooey or hot. The discomfort usually only lasts a day or three. Macoroni and cheese is a great choice. And here is a tip: cherries! cherries contain natural anti inflammatory chemicals that will really help.

Soft foods: Just for a couple of days while you mouth gets used to being "asked" to move. Soups, pasta, etc.-- stuff you dont need to chew too much. You'll feel fine after a couple of days and will once again be able to eat almost anything-- just not the ones your orthodontist told you not to!

Eating with braces: Try softer foods for a few days. Puddings, ice cream and drinks like ensure will keep you going.

Call Orthodontist: Call your Orthodontic Specialist for relief. There's lots of things a specialist can recommend for you to provide relief. In the meantime eat a soft high protein diet, foods such as ice cream, tuna salad, fish, pasta w meat sauce, soups that have cooled to room temperature, Boost or Ensure, etc.
