You shouldn't worry about having braces. You'll have to take new headshots when you get them off, but that's okay, since these ones are going to be free anyways. There's nothing wrong with having braces, and since they don't really change your acting, it's not a big deal.
DONT GET INTO A FIGHT!!!!
bush your teeth twice as much as you do now so that you don't have little clean spots under the braces when you get them off
Yes. Truthfully...you need to be aware of the fact that you must be incredibly careful to keep your teeth clean. Brush so carefully at least twice a day, and more if possible. Seriously. Because when you get the braces off and your teeth are straight and oh, so beautiful (and they will be!) you don't want to start having cavities filled. Best of luck to you, and I'm not kidding...brush carefully!
Plan on soft foods for at least a day or two. Because the braces are repositioning your teeth, they hurt. Everytime you get them tightened they'll hurt also.
Yes! you are going to want to have some IB Profen because your head and jaw will be a bit sore..i made the mistake of traveling right after I got mine without any...not fun! Also you can get this wax stuff to put on them so they dont cut up the inside of your mouth, they wont for very long, its just until they soften up a bit from your saliva..i know sounds horrible but its really not. Oh also the ortho should give this little brush that you can use to get food out of them....because brushing your teeth somtimes just wont cut it. Also apple not cut are not your friend haha! I hope this helps, I had brace for like 8 years...wasnt as horrible as you think
always take your wax with you! Eat a burger and an apple before you go get your braces on. It will be the last time you will enjoy them. Ask for one of those tooth pick things, they help after you eat, because food always gets stuck in the braces. If any teeth are being pulled, beware its painful once your teeth start moving. Ice cream is your friend! Good luck, and despite all the pain of having braces, just think about the beautiful smile you will have!
Ya, no oral sex. It's gonna hurt your partnah! X-)
You're in for a treat.
Hmm..they're not as bad as most people make them seem. Sure at first you have a bit of pain and uncomfortable-ness (yes I just made my own word), but that's because there is a foreign object in your mouth.
I would recommend brushing your teeth regularly, twice a day, flossing every so often. And don't be afraid to smile!
First of all, the braces don't soften to your mouth... they're metal. You're mouth will get used to the braces, the skin will toughen up. When you get the braces they put these things on your molars called spacers (they really hurt!!) the spacers go down past your gum line, so you have to keep that area clean of food as often as possible or you'll get an infection. Use Listerine and floss (the dentist should give you something that makes flossing easier, a blue loop thingy) It's hard work, but worth it to have clean teeth! Good luck!!
