I used to, during my dark stupid teenage middle school years.
I can barely even remember having them, I try to block all that out. But now I love my teethhh.

I have them now, and I wanted them when I got them. I hated how my teeth were before, and I would prefer them to be straight.
They hurt like a son of a bitch when you get sick though, I have cuts and scars in my mouth from them. >_> So if you have a small mouth you may not want to get braces >_> |

I remember when braces were a trend.
 I might be getting them soon for about 2-3 years. Totally not looking forward to that.

 "Did I scare you?" Group: Member Posts: 179 Joined: Sep 2006 Member No: 468,620 |
I do unfortunatley! :( It takes so long to brush them. I have to brush for 10 mins in the morn, 5 mins after lunch, and 10 mins after tea. I cant have fizzy drinks or fruit juices, and I had to cut down the amount of sugar i ate, which sucked. And i STILL am getting brown marks on my teeth where the glue came out of the sides of the block.. WTF?
You are crazy if you wanted them. Its torture! :P |

I've had braces for 1 month...... going to my orthodontist appointment tomorrow morning to get them tightened for the 1st time........
Its probably going to be mashed up food for me for the next few days till my teeth stop feeling tingly & sore.... O_O" Well......i have 1 yr & 5 months left *hopefully* till I get them off & have retainers on~ However, cleaning & flossing teeth with braces on takes me ages... When I finished eating, I always go to the bathroom to clean them coz it starts to smell gross after a while depending what I ate..... people think I'm weird carring a toothbrush, toothpaste & dental floss in a gladwrap bag in my handbag..... all this work better pay off & better be worth it!! =_= |

I had braces and didn't follow the "what not to eat" at all. I chewed ice a lot and had to get the back ones re-glued like 3 times lol.
And at first I brushed after I ate and didn't chew gum but after like 3 weeks I stopped doing that. But my teeth now are nice and straight and pearly white :D |

I had braces from June of '07 to December '08 and February 2009 - I got my tops on first and so I got them off first and my bottoms off second. They weren't bad at all. I have a permanent retainer on the bottom and a regular, non-permanent one on the bottom. :)

I've had my braces on for 1 year and a bit now.....another 6 months hopefully & i'll have retainers!
I can still eat most foods & its easier for me coz I oly ahve braces on the top row of my teeth, didn't need any at the bottom because they were straight. Just hate flossing & cleaning after meals, especially when food are stuck in them & rinsing water in my mouth doesn't help at all..... |
