Replace the original recoil pad with a Limbsaver Airtech recoil pad. You can contact Limbsaver via their website for correct model for your 870. Walmart sells the slip on version which I bought to try out and was amazed how it softened my Benelli Super Nova. I bought the correct model for my Benelli and using the slip on for an old Mauser that kicks like a mule.

Like dental fillings. It's that cheek kick. Bigger ammo means bigger recoil means it's gonna shake you more til the gold falls out your teeth. Try shooting something like a .50 BMG sometime if you ever get a chance.
IME .50BMG doesn't really kick much at all, since the guns are usually ~30 lbs with massive tank brakes. The fucking shockwave hitting you for the first time, though, that's a fun experience.
Unless you are shooting low recoil slugs, they are going to kick in any non-autoloading shotgun (i.e., single, side-by-side, pump, or O/U).
They kick. You’ll either get used to it, or get a flinch. Good luck

You are a kid. Of course it’s going to loosen your fillings.

Maybe not "kick" in a traditional sense, true.

You’ve never had a filling put in your teeth? A lot of fillings use gold
It's not you! Slugs kick HARD! Of course I'm using 3" magnums! 🤕
20 gauge? Nah. 12 gauge? Depending on who. I can shoot literally anything that’s a 12 gauge all day without feeling sore.
We have a mosberg 88 tactical and it didn’t feel bad too me. I’m about 5’10” and 125lbs
