braces tips please, pretty please?!

-Make sure to always keep extra dental wax on hand. (Ask your orthodontist for it) It will save your cheeks/gums lots of pain.
-Don't eat things with visible spices (pizza, spaghetti, etc.) unless you have floss on hand. (You'll also need a little tool to clean between brackets. It looks a little like a small pipe cleaner. Also ask your ortho for these. They're REALLY handy. )
-Don't chomp down on hard candy, chew on pencils/pens or anything really hard. Popping brackets off isn't SUPER painful; however getting them replaced is annoying.
-Don't pick at them/pull at them.
And please..unless you enjoy the awful taste of metal, don't put magnets near your mouth. It makes this horrid taste.. hahaha.

Overall, braces aren't horrible, you just need to remember that food gets caught in them VERY easily and food is very visible. Small travel tooth brushes will be your best friend. :)

Don't sweat it, they sound awful, but you'll love how you look afterward. :)
