Hey! I've had braces for soooo long (6 years) I got them in second grade!. HAHAH! true story!. getting them on wasnt painful but soon it will be!. At frist eat outmeal, mashed potatoes, soup, anything soft basically!. After a month, you can chew gum but only orbit and trident as they arent sticky!. I suggest you do NOT take painkillers so that when you get your braces tightened you wont have to rely on the OTC painkillers!. I had braces for 6 years and i didnt use pain killers ONCE! The final result isssss sooooooooooooooooooo worth it! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.!.!. ask away if you have any questions!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
braces cause a little pain but its totally worth it in the end because your teeth will be beautiful!. getting the braces put on doesnt hurt durring the process but for the next 2 or 3 days your teeth will probably be sore from the new braces because your teeth will have to adapt to the new device thsats pulling your teeth in the right direction!. you can pretty much eat most food except popcorn, gum, sticky candies, bagels, and apples!. i ate bagels anyway and nothing happend, and my orthodontist said popcorn was ok as long as i didnt eat hard kernels, and my orthodontist said gum was ok as long as it was sugarless so it would stick to the brackets, but i would definitely stay away from carmelly or hard candies because broken brackets are kind of uncomfortable until you get them fixed!. and you should be fine with any color you want i just wouldnt recomend white because it makes your teeth look like a duller color!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I have braces!. Getting them put on doesn't hurt!.!.!.!.it's a few hours after they are on that they start to hurt!. At first you will want to eat soft foods!. Then gradually you can start eating other foods!.!.!.!.while you are getting used to the braces!. After a while you will get used to them and will be able to eat pretty much anything!. They things they say not to eat or really hard foods and candy and also no soda!.
Also the orthodontist will give you this wax for the braces!. You use it if the braces are irritating you mouth!. You just put the wax over the bracket that is bothering you!.
As for the colors!.!.!.!.!.there are lots!. I just kinda play around with them!. You get to change the color every time you go in for a tightening!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes!.!.!.err, your teeth will be sore at least!.
And the inside of your cheeks will need to get used to the braces, so be prepared for that!.
Overall, the pain isn't too bad!.
As for food, it's best to eat soft things for awhile since you'll be sore and hard things will hurt to bite/chew!.!.!.not to mention many hard things you're not supposed to eat anyway since they can break the wire/brackets!. Your orthodontist should give you a list or at least go over what foods not to eat!.
I suggest noodles for the first twenty-four hours!. Watch out for using straws the first time after having braces!.!.!.your lips won't be used to having to go over them to get to it!.
Color is up to you!. My first time I got every other bracket pink and black!.!.!.but later I wished I hadn't because it kinda seemed like in the black ones I had teeth missing (I only really noticed in pictures)!. Now I just get gray/silver to blend in and not be too noticeable!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, it doesn't hurt, all they do is glue it on!. I ate everything I wanted, even gum!. They are going to tell you the guildlines anyways if you want to follow them!. For colors, try these cool websites:

Your ortho might not have all of the colors though!.
Your teeth start to get sore like a few hours later, so when you get home, take some pain killers!. You're not going to be able to really eat for up to a week!. Just eat really soft foods like mashed potatoes, jello, pudding, smoothies, soup, and ice cream!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well, it hurts a little while after you get them on, but not always!. they pain usually last about 1-2 weeks!. but only hurts to bite things!. like hot dogs, during this time!. After that you don't!. Your dentist will give you a list of the things to eat, and what to not!. but most people ignore the list!. i do, and haven't hurt my treatment, or even broke a wire or bracket!. My teatment is 18-24 months, it has been 16, and i still have quite a bet left, i think!.

omgosh yes! im not trying to scare you, but im telling you the truth!. some people hurt a lot, other hurt some!. you can take some medicine!. they hurt a whole lot the first 3 days!. at the end of the week they feell a little better!. after about a month they are light wait, and then over time they become even lighter that you can't feel them!. if you eat steak or chicken cut it into small pieces, cuz it will hurt to bite down!. don't eat apples or anything hard for a while!. i like green!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
When i had braces put on, i didnt know they were even doing it! i was waiting for them to put them on, and when they said that i was all done, i was very surprised!. The first week might be a little painful depending on how bad your teeth are!. Lots of soft foods like jello and pudding are a good idea!. and since its summer, treat yourself to a milkshake! its really not too bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It sorta hurts at first and it feels weird but you will get used to it!. cut up your food into tiny pieces before eating it!. and stay away from caramel and i chewed gum and it didnt mess up my braces because it usually does so you should be fine with gum!. hope i helped :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
