What does it feel like to get braces? ?!

Well im 17 too. and i got my braces on sep 16. You are gonna feel a little uncomfortable with braces the first day. and you are not gonna have any pain at all. but the second day it hurts the most. I couldn't eat an egg cuz it hurt so much. but the next week the pain dissapeared and now i can eat everything. and even chew gum. just be careful. gum can break your braces. anyways, like after 3 weeks my teeth started moving and now they are straight.. try not to choose dark colors cuz it would make your teeth look yellow. choose neon green.Health Question & Answer

Getting braces is the most awkward feeling I've ever had. You'll probably think they makes your lips look a little bigger..
You'll have to get impressions done sooner or later, that was the worst part... they practically gag you! but no worries, just think... when they are off your teeth will look beautiful and straight!!
Good luck!

braces don't usually hurt when you get them on. however it is kinda sore for like 3 days. you get used to it though. If you relax and don't think about it when you're getting them on then it goes by quicker than ever. hope everything works out.Health Question & Answer

it takes like an hour because they have to glue them and then dry them. It hurts a lot when you sleep and eat for like the first few weeks so be ready to drink lots of soup. Other than that it's not big deal. You won't even notice them at all. Health Question & Answer
