im getting mine off in another week. for the first few days they will hurt, but from then on you will get used to them and the date that you will get them off will go by very fast.
Good luck!! |

How to deal with them? do you mean how to take care of them or how to make them stand out less? If you are talking about how to make them stand out less, i suggest getting white braces. I've never had braces before (but i may need them later, not looking forward to it) but I've noticed that when people get color, especially "rainbow" it's a real eye-sore. That's pretty much the only thing that you can do about them unfortunately, but i guess the other option is invisiline? Sorry, i don't know if that helped but good luck. |

well brush your teeth alot, carry one of those pipe cleaner looking things with you all the time[ they usually have them at the ortodontist]. those help get stuff out of your teeth. use wax for pokey wires but not for a long time you should go get the pokey wires un pokey lol. yeah no whiting tooth past gum or mouth wash. i cheewed gum and it didnt stick to my braces so you can if your heart disires :] other than that they talk to you alllll about it after they put them on. and when you get them tightined your going to need alott of pain killers and proably will lose 5 pounds each time, [you wont be able to eat]. MOST OF ALLL THOUGH.... wear your retainer after you get your braces of!!!!! seriously your teeth will move and all that pain and time will go to watse wear it everynight for the rest of your life, no joke
:]
happy braces |

Patience and know that the outcome makes it all worth it. There is going to be pain but there is tylenol or advil for that. My son just got his off and my daughter just got the spacers put in so she can get started. Everybodys process is soooo different. My son had 12 teeth pulled, my daughter needs none out so it's so different.
Good Luck and your going to have a beautiful smile!

your dentist will give you wax (NOT candle wax) to put on your brakets, this will help you)
It's going to feel like a horse with regins in your mouth! You might cry (i did the same thing) and you make want to take several/one
-Tylenol
-Advil
for pain.... ice cream sometimes help. Don't sweat it! It's no big deal, you'll get used to them in less than 7 days! |

ok i never had braces but my sister did so yeah.
before u go in take a tylenol or wutever.
when eating pizza or burgers always cut it up and chew with ur back teeth.
dont eat CHEETOS!!
it looks disgusting afterwards.
i personally dont like the colored braces unless thats what u want to do.
clear look the best.
carry ur toothbrush with u everywhere.
brush twice and day and be sure to get between ur teeth and the strings.
dont always rub ur gums or tongue on them cuz u could get it caught on there.
and it looks painful. |

Everyone is different as far as pain but I would suggest only drinking liquid for the first day or two as your getting used to them and as much as it may hurt brush your teeth because it actually helps with the pain and if you have really bad pain take an Advil. Good luck!! |
|
=)!♥
|
dont eat hot (temperature) foods or hard foods. |
|

seriously i have braces and it is not that bad at all!!!
I mean think about it when you get then off you;ll have beautifully straight teeth!
Sure it hurts for the first few days but nothing pain killers cant do.
And when you've got them no1 even cares! |
|
i♥youu.

uggh.to me other people have been telling me braces hurt and when they eat you can't really eat proper because you knw they hurt so bad people with big teeth and have braces can't really shut or close there mouths real good;hope you dont have that.but yes getting braces is a pain in the neck ive been there and done that trust me. |

I am getting braces too! I have just been asking my friends with braces about them. The only thing I am worried about is it making my voice slurr, cause I really like singing but I don't want it to mess up my singing voice =[ Good Luck Though! |

Don't pick at the metal braces. Clean them thoroughly. ***** thoroughly that you didn't get invisoline because the orthodontist claims that they aren't durable (a lie, my metal braces broke incredibly often). |

magnets don't stick in them.
So, for maybe a week, eat soft, cold foods (slushies, melted ice cream, ect.)
Braces aren't too bad! You will feel a bit of pain, but soon, you won't even feel they are there!
Good luck!!! |

eventually, you wont even notice they're on you, but for the time being, cold ice cream helps some of the pain (if you have any) and always keep some wax in case anything starts to feel abrasive or poke you. |

You should have brush ur teethes regularly with Oral B intradental brush thrice, specially made for brushing braces. A good mouthwash u need following the brushing helps you. |
|

dont use the wax.
DO WHAT THE ORTHODONTIST SAYS! like wearing rubberbands and stuff. i know its annoying but you'll get them off much sooner.
just do it!!!! |

I have braces, top and bottom, and they're no big deal, really. They take a while to get used to, sometimes you drool a bit, but other than that, you should be fine.
Also, brushing your teeth becomes a pain, but floss and brush as your orthodontist recommends. It's better than getting cavities and permanently stained teeth.
The wax they give you is useless, throw it away.
Follow the food guides. You get used to that as well, and lose your taste for the foods that are forbidden to you.
Good luck with them! |

carry your wax with you where ever u go :) have a mirror with u too at all times to check if u have something in ur braces :D |

Don't eat candy if you do brush your teeth.
You'll be fine. They'll be off soon a few years at the most. Oh take a few pain killers after. It hurst a little. |
