It doesnt hurt that much its just a bit tight on your teeth wen u first get them done and everytime u get them tightned but it only lasts a day or 2 and its not that bad. Good luck with them its worth it mines was.

not initially. when you go back every month for the tightening then it can really hurt. stock up on pain killers. also stock up on dental wax to cover the spikey bits at the back. they can cut your gums to pieces. (babybell wax works if you have no dental wax)they are welll worth the big of pain though to get straight teeth

Yes, never ever put your head near train tracks. Seriously, yes its uncomfortable to begin with and you can get ulcers, but your dentist will give you a mouthwash and set of instructions of what you can and cannot do. You will limited with some foods as well at first because foods tend to stick to them. But all my kids have beautiful teeth now so it was well worth having it done.

They can be uncomfortable, especially when they are adjusted. If you think about it, what they are doing is adding pressure in order for the body to move them. When I had them that's the way it was, not too bad. But dental proceedures have changed in 30 years, so it may be a little easier.

Hello,
braces are a little uncomfortable when they're first put on, and when they're tightened, but the rest of the time they're fine.
you might want to put wax at teh back where the wire comes through if it scratches, but really, you'll get so used to it.
my friends used to wind me up that they would really hurt but honestly, after a while you kinda forget they're there.
be careful with what you eat - hard sweets can break the bracket off your teeth. it doesnt hurt when that happens, but the telling off from the orthodontist isnt worth it! and if you get told no chewing gum...as long as you brush your teeth alright afterwards the orthodontist will never know!
