Questions about getting braces?!


Question: Questions about getting braces!?
Hey everyone, I'm probably going to need braces pretty soon and I just had a few questions about it!. First I was wondering if there is any alternative to getting them besides invisible braces!? (dentist said my teeth are too messed up for them and plus my mom can't afford them) Are they painful!? What foods do I have to give up!? Is it awkward to do certain things like eat, talk, kiss, or sing!? How long do you typically need to wear them for!? It would be a huge help if someone could answer ALL of these questions, I'd really appreciate it, thanks! xxWww@Answer-Health@Com

Well im getting mine off this month!!!!!! an dive had em for 2 years!. you would think you have to give up a bunch of stuff but im ok with it! u can eat everything basicly except for caramel!. you can chew gum but wait like a month after you get them on!. And the rumors about not eating popcorn!.!.!.!.forget them!. u can eat all the popcorn you want just watch out for kernels!. And you dont have to brush your teeth after every meal like they say!. you can talk perfelctly with just top, or bottom, or both!. but if you have spacers in it might be harder!. retainerrs I hear are what gives u a speech inpediment!. When you get them on, take advil and hr before andbe prepeared for bad taste!. they might press really hard on ur teeth but u gotta just be patient!. and they hurt for like a week so I suggest buying a lot of jello! ease urself back into hard foods!. ok good luck with them! ; D
EDIT: dont be scared by those ppl that say ur life will never be the same!. rite after i got my braces on, guys were all over me its weird!.!.!. and you CAN talk and kiss but i would wait out on the kissing until later!. sorry!Www@Answer-Health@Com

it hurts really bad! you usually have to have them on for about 2 years!. no alternative!. HURTS LIKE HECK! ahhh you will wish u were dead!. no guys will like you!. its the worst thing in the world!. youi will be scarred for life! if u kiss a guy who already has braces your mouth could get stuck together

HAVE A BLAST W/ BRACES!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes byesWww@Answer-Health@Com

no theres no alternative i got mine 3 weeks ago and at first they really hurt but now i am getting used to them they feel normal and ok!.
for the first couple of days it is really hard to eat so buy plenty of soup before hand
really you should give up toffee,caramel,chewing and bubble gum,and anything very hard like nuts or anything sticky
no it does not affect things like talking,kissing or singing
some people after 3 weeks can chew gum and eat properly but for some reason i cant
usually you need to keep them on for around 18 months and a year!.
well hope i have been some help and good luck with the brace

not painful, when u get them tightened (aound once a month they might be sore for a day or two(cos ur teeth are moving) but nothing major!. just dont eat anything hard!!

, they say give up chewing gum but i payed no heed!.!.!. it doesnt make any diference to them at all!.
you'll find it weird for a few days but you get used to them really quickly, it might be weird the other person u kiss, i dunno but its fine for u, and u can do all the same things

depends on each person how long u hav to wear them, depending how bad ur teeth are!. i had mine for 1yr(train tracks that is) then u have to wear a plastic retainer for 6-12months

dont be scared of them, they're made out to be worse than they are!. once u get them u'll realise there was nothing to worry bout!. its sooo worth it

good luck!



just reading the other thoughts!!!
honestly it doesnt hurt!. gums a little sore when u get them tightened like i said!. but its nothing!. if u fing it sore take a paracetamol/nurofen u wont notice it then!. dont let it put u offWww@Answer-Health@Com
