When will the elastics on my braces stop hurting me?!


Question: When will the elastics on my braces stop hurting me.?
I've had braces for about one and a half years now, but on Tuesday, my dentists surprised me with elastics. I'm supposed to leave them on at all times and change them every 24 hours. At first, it didn't really bother me, but yesterday they really started hurting my teeth. I'm barely chewing my food anymore; I'm just basically relying on my back teeth to mush it a little and then swallow. When will this be over.?Health Question & Answer
