How to ease the pain of new braces?

I just got braces yesterday. Is there anything I could do to ease the excruciating pain?

Except for pills and oralgel?

eat icecream and lots of it!
or frostys from wendys
I ate tons of those when I had braces

I actually have braces just as we speak and I have founda few ways to ease the pain! You can get wax from your dentist to put on your brackets so they will not make your gums sore. Also if you constantly eat jelo or drink water I always found that it would take your mind off the pain as well as give you something good to eat!!!

I found that after going to the orthodontist getting a milkshake or a frosty helped a lot so if your braces hurt, get icecream
