Hey there,

When I first got mine on, I think the pain lasted about 4 days. For some reason I had the urge to just push on my teeth really hard, and it felt good. It might just be me though lol. Make sure you have lots of wax, it helps so much. It gets better after the first week. Hang in there :)

Congratulation on getting your braces, I got braces at 24 too! Mine hurt for a week and just like gennevie77 I spent the week pushing my teeth and making them click!
