Hello,
I can understand your concern. Getting braces is always painful initially as they put pressure on teeth to move them. However, the pain should not be that much that you have to use the word "dire".
You can take your prescription medicine for seizure along with an analgesic that is available over the counter. However, I would advise you to visit your orthodontist again as he might need to do some changes in the braces.
I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish you feel better soon.
Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
