It may be a trans-palatal bar positioned to utilize tongue pressure to intrude your molars. Immediately call your Orthodontist and report your discomfort. If you are not seeing an Orthodontist, find one. In then meantime take 1 200mg Ibuprofen @ breakfast, lunch, dinner, and before bed. Since every 6 hrs w 1 tsp salt in 8 oz Luke warm water...rinse then expectorate.
