I ve had braces on for ten days. Mt gap between front teeth is closing and it feels like the skin between them is being pushed bahck.I have a cushion formed behind the front top teeth and im biting into it with my lower teeth as they moved backwards a lot.  I cant close my mouth as it hurts a lot.  It feels it is inflamed. Also my front teeth feel like pulsating. What do I do now?  Will I need a surgery to have that skin cut?
Hello, Try to reduce your tissue inflammation with warm salt water rinsing, proper brushing, flossing with threaders and interdental cleaners. Anti-inflammatory medication can help your treat your discomfort. A prescription rinse with an anesthetic could be requested. Your symptoms should resolve, but increased inflammation is common while braces are on your teeth. Accelerate your professional cleaning schedule to every three months instead of six months. Call your orthodontist and report your level of discomfort. The doctor will advise you if this is unusual for your specific treatment and schedule an appointment to adjust your braces if needed. Thank you for your inquiry. I hope my suggestions are useful, and you begin to feel better.
