braces Hey im 15/f i just got braces a little over a month ago.. and before i got braces i was really outgoing and was always wanted to be the center of attention. But now that i have braces i've noticed that i dont want to be that anymore because of my braces.. i guess im self consious.. Is there anything i can tell myself or do to make me become less self consious and be myself again? Any advice would help! thanks

I got mine 3 years ago and I hated to smile!
It does take a while to get used to them being there, but after a while you will forget and go back to wanting to be the center of attention.
Make sure you keep them as clean as you can...I rarely flossed, and I really regretted it! my gums were really puffy! ]
I was the same way when I got braces. I was worried that my teeth looked weird and didn't smile as much...stuff like that. They take a while to get used to but a lot of people think braces are cute these days. So just pretend like they're not there and chances are soon enough you'll adjust. ]
well it doesn't really matter what you have on you teeth or stuff just as long as you stay your normal self just be your self and soon you won't care about having braces its probaby just because you just got them i hope i helped

I had braces & trust me, I understand what you mean, but you have to remember that braces are pieces of metal stuck to your teeth. You shouldn't be self consious. Sure they are funky looking & everything, but if you notice how many people have braces these days.. you like 1 in a zillion. Don't let metal get in the way of your fun and happiness. Just be yourself, and in a few months.. thats braces will be gone and you will have perfect teeth !

Just remember that you are 1 in a zillion & that you're not alone in the world from a metal mouths :] Don't worry.. everything is okay, its wire and rubber-bands. Just be yourself, and no one will even know the difference.

Believe it or not..boys like braces on girls. Especially boys that don't have them haha. You won't have them forever, so show them off while you do have them! I asked my guy friend what he thought looked cute on girls and he said "BRACES & FRECKLES!" So there ya have it lol.

A lot of people have braces and look totally hot with them. It gives you an excuse to talk to people since you just got them on. Don't change who you are just because you have them because you'll get used to acting like that and when you get them off you wont be outgoing anymore. ]
First of all you can tell yourself--HELLO, everyone has braces now-a-days. It's nothing out of the norm. At youyr age, it's so common. Don't let your braces keep you from being YOU. Have fun. Live you life. Be the life of the party. And just think, after you gert them off, you'll have an awesome smile! As long as you have self confidence and believe and yourself, others will see it too. That is the key. Don't let a few measly bracets and wires keep you from your potential. :) ]
