I am gettign braces! What should I do and not do?

It is my first time getting them. I don't know what colors to get either.

Do's:
*Brush your teeth every day
*For the first days, eat soft foods.
*If at school,use mouthwash at least.
*Floss at least once daily.
*Take Tylenol 1 hour before they get put or immediately after they get put.


Don'ts:
*Don't eat hard,sticky or gooey foods.
*Don't chew gum with sugar. (Try trident sugarless gum,it's good for your teeth and it tastes good.)
*Don't touch your braces too much or you might break them.
*Don't rub your tongue against your braces,you might cut your self.
*Don't chew on pencils or erasers.
*Don't bite your nails.
*Don't eat popcorn.


Remember: Braces work by applying pressure to your teeth. If your teeth are uncomfortable and feel like their being pressured,that's a GOOD thing.


Colors:
Try getting colors to match upcoming holidays such as green and red for Christmas. Don't be afraid to mix it up and express your self! Also,theres something new called braces jacketz and it's these clip-on things that have letters and sings,heres the link: http://www.bracketjacketz.com/home.html!...
Good luck and remember,it's worth it in the end!
PS: I'm also getting braces in 6 days!


So ya that's all I could think of now if there's more I'll add it.
I almost forgot, if your braces start cutting you then go to:http://www.dentakit.com/cocoforbr.html... to buy a comfort cover, they really work!
