(1) No, it doesn't hurt actually getting the braces on or anything, but they do tigthen them, and for a few days afterwards your jaw and teeth ache it seems like. I mean it's not sharp, jabbing pain or anything. But it's just a constant ache. Though you can eat cold food (yay, ice-cream), and take some pain killers. The pain is only around for a few days after they tighten it though....it's really not as bad as you think.
(2) It matters how bad your teeth are, and what they have to do. I got mine on I think in 8th grade...got them off sometime in 10th....so it took about 2 years from when they actually put the braces on, to when they took them off. But I had spacers for a good 6 months before then...so....i dunno. talk to your ortho about it. (3) Not really....at first it is...but you do get used to it. It's not as bad as you think, trust me! Good luck!   =MOVED TO HEALTH= |
