With braces, how long before your teeth start to move?!


Question: With braces, how long before your teeth start to move!?
I don't mean how many years, i mean how long does it take for the first changes to start to appear!.
I have a few crooked teeth but no gaps!.

Also any color suggestions to make them less noticable, i was thinking light blue!.

and does it hurt to get them put on!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Braces give you pressure on your teeth because they are tightened together!. Theres no agongizing pain, it's just a bit annoying!. You will notice soreness and it will take a few weeks to get used to them!. They're not as bad as people as people say they are though!.

It should take just a few months for your teeth to straighten if your dentist tightens them at least once a month!. It takes longer to close gaps!. As for the color, a brighter color (blue sounds good) is better because dark colors resemble dirt!.

Also, try to stock a bit up on soft foods (like noodles) or nutrition drinks as they will help you prepare and so you can gain the nutritions your body needs without forcing yourself to eat foods you can't!. Some tylenol an hour before you get them won't hurt to ease the pain too!. Hope that helps :]Www@Answer-Health@Com

well after a few weeks i had a look and they had moved, when i got them put on it hurt a little cos he (the doctor) has to press on them a bit but it tastes awful and hurt alot after like a day!.

everytime he(or she) gives you thicker wires they hurt more, they don't hurt everyone but they hurt me and a few of my friends who had braces!.!.!.

anyway blue should look good,
i cant tell u if they hurt to get off cos i still have mine but my neighbour says that they feel slimy and then the retainer hurts like hell, more than the braces!

good luck

minutes - probably not noticeable for a couple weeks though

idk

yes, but you will surviveWww@Answer-Health@Com

It always depends on the person, but you may have some discomfort the same day!. I remember I did the first night at dinner!.

As for color, I have clear (ceramic) on the top and plain metal on the bottom!.

The clear ones are nearly invisible from a few feet away!.

It doesn't hurt to get them put on, just uncomfortable!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
