I can't believe I'm already a month in and how much progress has happened but...Did anyone else get some serious headaches? It usually starts about midday for me and then as soon as I get home from work I have to sleep. Then I can't sleep at night but at least the headache has gone. It's driving me mad! None of the conventional painkillers are working and I've tried codeine and paracetamol mix but that's not touching them. I'm pretty sure its the teeth as I've started getting pains in them again like I just got them on. Perhaps my ortho stuck them on too tight?

I just got my braces on today @1 and I have a terrible tension headache. Keeping fingers crossed that it goes away but I would think headaches would be expected with all the tooth pressure.

In nearly 4 months in and usually have a headache when I wake up.

Ah ok! It's good to know that it's not just me. The headaches have subsided a little now the pain has reduced with my teeth but every now and then there's a day where they are pretty sensitive and I get a headache again. Hopefully that will improve with time!

I have experianced mild head aches with my spacers. I think it is normal.
