It's not that bad..just ask for orthodontic wax from your dentist and apply on the sharp points on braces..And apply dologel CT ointment on the affected tissues thrice daily for 3 days..keep the inner side of lips lubricated with Vaseline petroleum jelly.it will be ok as times passes..your mouth will adapt with braces.
