Question: Im getting braces soon!? a few questions....?
Answers:
Spacers are to space out your back teeth, so that they can put bands around them (a little metal thing that goes completely around each of your back teeth).
Honestly, they are not pleasant. They do hurt a bit. Usually you only need to keep them on a week or two, and as the week goes in, they stop hurting as much.
Hmm I had an overbite as well, but I honestly can't tell you what coils are or anything.
I just remember I had an overbite, I went in to get my wire changed (they must have put the coil on as well), and later that night my overbite was gone (yes it's that fast with some things).
So It really wasn't bad at all getting the overbite fixed, it's quick and doesn't really hurt from what I remember.
Good luck! Remember tylenol or advil when you first get your braces on!
