I am getting braces in 2 weeks.?!


Question: I am getting braces in 2 weeks.?
I am getting them on the 1st April and im not sure what its like. What do they do, how long does it take, does it hurt, what can't i do?

Answers:

In the beginning, its hard what I mean by that is 3-5 days there will be pain in your mouth from your teeth adjusting to the braces (getting used too.) Eat soft foods like:

Mashed potatoes
Soup
Mac and cheese
Ice cream
- You can eat a lot more than that those are just tips for when they hurt.

Foods to avoid:

Lollipops
Popcorn
Hard chips (Doritos, Freedos etc.)
Bubble gum
Carrots
Un-cut fruits

Good luck!



Hey! I was told by my cousins who had braces that it hurts real bad but honestly... I didn't feel much pain at all exept for the first day but that happened because of the pressure that was on my teeth for the first time. I had my braces put on august n i did great even though i have alot of pressure on my teeth it doesnt hurt. It can also depend on your dentist. Be sure to find the best one you can. And never be scared always think of the good result u will have later on. I dont mind my braces at all. Plus i hope to become a dentist when i grow up.
Good Luck! =)



It does not hurt at all , but in the first days it's quite uncomfortable
