You may also feel irritation on the cheeks, lips and tongue lasting for 1-2 weeks as they toughen and become accustomed to the braces rubbing against them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pain Relief<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gargling with lukewarm salt water (1 tsp. salt to 8oz of water) can help with tender teeth. You can also try over the counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen to relieve soreness. For irritation to the soft tissues in your mouth, we can supply you with wax to create a protective barrier on the outside of the braces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Loose Teeth<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While a bit unsettling, it is also normal for teeth to begin to feel loose. In fact, this is reassurance that your braces are doing their job! They must first loosen your teeth to move them. Don\u2019t worry, they will not always feel loose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sports Mouth Guards<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you play sports, we can provide you with a special mouth guard to wear for protection during play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When to Call<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you feel a sharp pain or a sore begins to develop on your gums, cheeks or lips, please call us. If you suspect that you have a loose or broken band, brace or wire, please call us so that we can remedy the situation as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t worry; your teeth won\u2019t hurt forever! If you have any questions about the duration or intensity of soreness and pain in your mouth, please give us a call!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\n<div class=\"entry-summary\">\n\u03a0\u03cc\u03c3\u03bf\u03c2 \u03c0\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2 \u03b8\u03b5\u03c9\u03c1\u03b5\u03af\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9 \u03ba\u03b1\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2; \u0395\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c6\u03c5\u03c3\u03b9\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03b3\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc \u03c4\u03b1 \u03b4\u03cc\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03b1 \u03bd\u03b1 \u03b5\u03af\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bd\u03ac\u03bd\u03b5 \u03b3\u03b9\u03b1 2-3 \u03b7\u03bc\u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b5\u03c4\u03ac \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03c4\u03bf\u03c0\u03bf\u03b8\u03ad\u03c4\u03b7\u03c3\u03b7 \u03c4\u03c9\u03bd \u03b1\u03b3\u03ba\u03af\u03c3\u03c4\u03c1\u03c9\u03bd \u03ae \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03c3\u03b1\u03c1\u03bc\u03bf\u03b3\u03ae \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2. \u039c\u03c0\u03bf\u03c1\u03b5\u03af \u03b5\u03c0\u03af\u03c3\u03b7\u03c2 \u03bd\u03b1 \u03b1\u03b9\u03c3\u03b8\u03b1\u03bd\u03b8\u03b5\u03af\u03c4\u03b5 \u03b5\u03c1\u03b5\u03b8\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03cc \u03c3\u03c4\u03b1 \u03bc\u03ac\u03b3\u03bf\u03c5\u03bb\u03b1, \u03c3\u03c4\u03b1 \u03c7\u03b5\u03af\u03bb\u03b7 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c3\u03c4\u03b7 \u03b3\u03bb\u03ce\u03c3\u03c3\u03b1, \u03c0\u03bf\u03c5 \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03c1\u03ba\u03bf\u03cd\u03bd 1-2 \u03b5\u03b2\u03b4\u03bf\u03bc\u03ac\u03b4\u03b5\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b8\u03ce\u03c2&hellip;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/%cf%80%cf%8c%ce%bd%ce%bf%cf%82-%ce%ba%ce%b1%ce%b9-%ce%b5%cf%81%ce%b5%ce%b8%ce%b9%cf%83%ce%bc%ce%bf%ce%af\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;\u03a0\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u0395\u03c1\u03b5\u03b8\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03af&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/%cf%80%cf%8c%ce%bd%ce%bf%cf%82-%ce%ba%ce%b1%ce%b9-%ce%b5%cf%81%ce%b5%ce%b8%ce%b9%cf%83%ce%bc%ce%bf%ce%af\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;\u03a0\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u0395\u03c1\u03b5\u03b8\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03af&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1149","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1149"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1149\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1150,"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1149\/revisions\/1150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pappaorthodontics.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
