Braces will make teeth sore and sensitive. On occasion an anti inflammatory will help. If pain worsens discuss with your general dentist to make sure you don't have a cavity.
I buprophen as a temporary relief but if it continues see you doctor.
Braces are very unlikely to resolve a toothache.
Consult with your board certified orthodontist to see what the recommendations are in your case. In many cases Tylenol (the recommended dose to treat a mild headache) could provide some relief.
Depends on the cause of the pain. Is it the braces? Cavity? Gum disease?
Toothache when using braces is temporal. You will have a little soreness on the first 3 days and then it will go away. To alleviate the toothache take ibuprofen( advil, Motrin) pain medicine as needed.
