2 days max? You must have had the girly braces.

They would hurt me for nearly a week.

When I first got my 'proper' brace, it was really bad (I could only eat custard and soup :P), then it took about a week for it to get back to normal. Getting it tightened hurt for a few weeks, then it goes normal again... I've got a retainer now though, don't know when I'm getting rid of it :P

They also make my teeth ache really bad, so much so that I cannot eat because they ache so much. Is this normal, or has my dentist just tightened them to much?

Heh I know what you mean. Its entirley normal, think about what they are doing; slowly moving your teeth. This is my advice for you.

1. Take motrin (Advil) for tthe first week, even before you sleep.
2. Your mouth get's used the the rubbing, put wax on wherever its rubbing, otherwise you'll get cuts.
3. Scream
4. BRUSH YOUR GUMNs (sp?) It hurts like a mother every time they take the bands on or off when you go for your checkups, which they will do every time you go.

You'll get used to them, I get mine off in December/January. I'm so happy, my smile will be normal! and white instead of Metallic Blue. ^_^

I have them as well. Yes for the majority once a month you'll be in pain for 3-4 days. But you get used to it and plus it really does help your smile!

I've just got them, just wondering how many other people has had them or has got them.

I curently hate them, but my friends have told me I'll eventually get used to it.

I just got mine yesterday.
