Yes. All types of braces you should expect to experience slight pain with as your teeth adjust and move closer together. The pain often subsides after the first few weeks when your teeth and gums have become accustomed. You should also expect to see a larger than normal amount of saliva as your mouth will initially recognize the braces as a foreign object, triggering saliva production.
These are just some of the most commonly asked questions regarding braces and orthodontics.
