The first time I got them I didn't even feel pain. Then some hours later they started hurting. I get mine tighten every 3 weeks..it hurts like the first 3 days or so, but not a BIG pain, just a little. I don't think they look bad. Buy at least you will have straight teeth. biggrin.gif So I think it's worth the pain.

omg i want braces soo so bad

reasons? because..
01. they straighten your teeth
02. you can play music with the rubber bands
03. you can change the colors
04. its a funny feeling if u feel ur teeth with ur tongue
05. everyone has them, its kind of 'IN' these days

I get mine the end of this month. =] My ortho says it'll be about half an hour...Which isn't too bad, bring some music. =] Oh yeah, && wear lip balm because your lips might get really dry. They don't usually hurt until they tighten them, which I think is every month? I think people w/ braces are cuter. =P I'll say boys more so I don't scare the girls, lol. I hope you like gelatin, Icees, soup, && teething rings...I know, why teething rings? They helped me w/ my expander && spacers.

braces hurt when you first get then on, especially when you brush your teeth and flossing is such a bother

i broke my braces a whole bunch of times because i keep on eating, and i always swally the rubber bands.. so i was a regular at my dentist

I think this topic would serve better in the health forum then in girls locker.

Mods, feel free to move it if you disagree.

-moved to interests/health-

I heard that they hurt most when you get them tightened. Pick any color BUT black.

they hurt when you get them on or when you get them tightened the first 2 or 3 days but you'll get used to it. just remember you can eat whatever you want as long as you don't bite down hard. for example you can eat a muffin and bite down really hard when you chew and make your braces pop.

Well since you already have your braces on..there's no need for this to be open anymore.
