I going to have a tooth removed and then braces put on my teeth. WIll it hurt?

I am the biggest baby in the world when it comes to pain. My dentist said that he first needs to take out a tooth from my mouth before he can apply the braces on my teeth. I was wondering how much does it hurt while taking out a tooth? Also does it hurt while applying the braces? Will it be uncomfortable? Should i get it done? Is it worth the pain?

If you have a good dentist it will not hurt to have your tooth pulled!!! Be Brave!


Having braces put on isnt all that bad. (They were done before I even knew it with mine!)





Going back to have the Braces Adjusted every couple of weeks is the part that really isnt all that Comfy. But it doesnt hurt really bad at the same time!








Yes it is worth it!! Just be brave! The end result will be totally worth EVERYTHING!!
Reply:It won;t hurt if your dentist knows what he/she is doing!
Reply:well see pain differs with the person i have 8 teeth pulled but the only pain you feel its the shots that you get and its for like 5-10 seconds...its okay!
Reply:no it dont hurt at all......
Reply:I'm not going to lie to you. It is going to hurt...but only a little. And the end result will be totally worth the pain. The pain from the tooth pull will be minor and will go away quickly. As for the braces, the application doesn't hurt so much as the tightening. At each visit the orthodonist will pull the wire in certain ways to pull your teeth into alignment. These can result in a dull ache in your mouth. But basic over the counter pain medication like Advil or Aleve can help. For the procedures themselves you can talk to your dentist and tell him/her that you are sensitive to the pain and they can give you something to help. They will numb the area for the tooth pull so you won't actually feel it. Just think of how pretty and straight your smile will be when its all done.
Reply:Its worth it. I have braces, and your teeth are just sore for a couple of days. Just stick to soft food and you'll be fine dude.
Reply:if he uses anesthesia don't worry but of he doesn't auch sorry for you
Reply:I will not lie to you, it will hurt. It is not going to hurt while they are putting them on, but when you get home that evening your teeth will be very sensitive. You are not going to be able to eat hard things, so I would stock up on the mashed potatoes for about a week or two. that being said the pain is dull and is is very bearable. Take some ibuprofen and take a nap when you get home, that's what I did. It will all be worth it in the end though, you will be so happy the day you get them off and get to show off your new teeth.
Reply:Really it depends on your dentist! I ve had a tooth pulled for the same reason, and the braces went on a month later! The worse part of the whole thing was the numbing! Needles suck!
Reply:It is not that painful. There will be a few seconds of pain until the numbing drug takes effect, but it is not that bad. I had four teeth pulled before I got braces - no sweat.





As for braces, they are not bad at all, and the effects are very good. You will be judged as an adult for having crooked teeth, which will hurt you in work and social life. (Sorry, but it is true - people mention bad teeth all the time.)





There are dentists who specialize in people who don't like dentistry; they are very, very good with people who don't like pain. Look at the dentist's ads in the yellow pages; they advertise things like painless dentistry or say "We cater to cowards."





Good luck.
Reply:I have braces, but i've never had a permenant tooth pulled. Braces don't hurt so much, you'll get used to it. Just make sure to brush and floss-mouth wash would help too. Since they're going to pull a permenant tooth, they'll probably numb you or put you to sleep :) so you shouldn't feel that.
Reply:yea! it might after the drugs ware off. But You can always take an aspirin or Tylenol.
Reply:taking out the tooth doesnt really hurt because they numb the area that they put the needle in that numbs your gums. depending on what tooth it is you may feel pressure. applying the braces is a breeze, your mouth just gets really dry when they put them on so when they are done you are drooling all over the place haha. the only "pain" is the first FEW days of the braces and it is only a pressure feeling. advil did the trick for me. and it is WELL worth the pain. I had 2 teeth removed, a palate expander as well as a lower expander for a year, and braces for about 4-5 years. of course my teeth were awful. (im scottish)
Reply:well peoples pain levels are all different....i cant really tell you about the teeth pulled out part cs ive nevr had it but they should give you a numbing injection....it wont hurt whilst your there but you may be a bit sore afterwards, you can take painkillers though, they should make you feel better.





Brace...never hurt me atol, people always say about the tighting is the worst and i was soo worried about the pain for the tightin bt it really wasnt that bad, like i sed everyones pain levels are different. The first few days braces feel strange and yes you can feel your teeth moving and its a strange sensation but you'll get used to it eventually. to me it was like an itching kind of sensation and it anoyed me! lol. but its hurts when you eat so just stick to easy stuff like soup and things liek that for a few days first and work your way to eating normally again..





Good Luck! however much it hurts just remember its worth every bit! cs your guna have perfect straight teeth after :D

Reply:the extraction will be a easy cheesy. the dentist will administer good anesthesia and you'll feel pulling and pushing but no pain or sharpness.


placing the braces will also be easy cheesy. it will be uncomfortable when you have the braces engaged and/or tightened. it will feel like you have toothpicks in between everyone of the your teeth. it'll be swore and annoying for the first couple of days of each tightening visit.


the 'worthy-ness' of braces is up to you. i'm a dentist and i put a huge value on one's smile and my own. personally, it's people's smile that i see first. however, sometimes people's expectations exceed what is possible for them. i get people who expect julia roberts' smile, but walk into my office with a mouth full of rotten teeth!


good luck

Reply:YES.
Reply:it definately is worth the pain cause you will have straight celebrity teeth when your done. taking the tooth out and getting braces on are both going to hurt but not so much you will cry.......... try asking for novacaine. it works really good!!! Also make sure you have your parent or gaurdian get a tropicana orange slushie after u get your braces on cause it also eases the pain!! good luck!
Reply:i did that before !





nop ,it's not supposed to hurt too much


(if your dentist knows what he is doing)
Reply:I had the exact same thing as you done two years ago when I got my braces on. I'm just going to tell you right now, the most pain that you will experience with braces is when you've just had them adjusted, and you try to eat something besides bread or liquid.





Anyway. When I had the tooth removed, I wasn't put under - just on some gas. The most painful part of the actual pulling was just when they put the Novocaine in. But even then, it really only hurt about 3/4 as much as when a fly bites you on the ankle. I didn't really feel much when they were actually pulling the tooth, and at the time I actually thought it was funny (I was on gas, remember. :D).





It doesn't really hurt to much when applying the braces. The worst part, when you first get the braces at least, is that your lips will become sore from the rough brackets rubbing on them. But, they dentist should give you some wax to put on the brackets, and then they're smooth and comfortable. And, after a week or two, your lips will get used to the brackets, and you won't even need the wax anymore.





All in all, I'd say it's worth it. Honestly, there is a minimal amount of pain, and you would probably regret NOT doing it in the long run.
Reply:Taking a tooth out hurts more if the tooth is further back in the mouth and especially painful if it is from the lower jaw right at the back or the upper jaw right at the back as these places can cause more trauma to the rest of the mouth and even other parts of the head. The braces will more likely be uncomfortable rather than out and out painful.
Reply:i had a root canal done and that hurts more than a tooth being pulled. Put some oral jel on it but put it on when you get there. the novicane is going to hurt a little big it just fears like a piercing. I have the greatest dentist in the world in manhattan and ask you dentist to like pull your lip/ pull it from your mouth then to your mouth he might even jiggle it. after the novicane it wont hurt one bit. nd its better to get it done b4 he puts on the braces b/c if u put braces on b4 that it dont make sense. you will be happy with the outcome your teeth woud be perfect. the only thing with braces is that they hurt for a couple of nights so your teeth get use to it. if you go to school dont go.
Reply:take motrin before you go for the appointment.


Braces do not hurt though. Just look like they do ha ha
