Braces
I might have to get braces. I would never think that I would need braces! My teeth are really straight except for one and that one started to hurt when I ate so I went to the dentist. I don't know anything about braces except that they hurt when you first get them and you can't eat for a while. I really am confused so any help would be appreciated.

Braces are not that bad, unless you have poor oral hygiene. A lot of people don't think they need braces because their teeth look straight. It's not just about the straightness of your teeth though, it's also about your bite. I've had one and a half sets of braces, and by no means are they fun, but they're manageable. They are going to hurt at first, and probably every time you go to see your orthodontist and get your wires changed. They are not going to hurt as soon as they get put on your teeth, it will take a few hours, and it's only because your teeth are not used to them and they are being shifted with the wires. You can eat, don't worry, softer foods feel a little better though.

I used to have braces, and they weren't bad at all! I might have had it better off, but when I got mine they didn't hurt at all. Most people's will hurt or feel sore for the first week, but my teeth were fine. It feels kind of ackward when you first get them, but you get used to it. I used to have the problem of the braces irritating my gums and skin [I used to get cuts on the inside of my mouth sometimes], but you get wax that you can put on top of the brace if it hurts. I actually ate an apple [but sliced up so I wouldn't break my braces] the third day that I got them. But again, it just depends on how your body will react to them. So basically its just a little bit weird at first, but you get used to them in only a couple of days. Good luck!

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help you
I have braces don't worry you will get used to them
when I first got mine on it hurt about a week but
they felt better and you can 't realy realize that
they are on I know that seems unpossible but it is true. Don't worry the good thing is that you will
have wonderfully straight teeth ! You can eat just
soft things and then when you have them on for like
3 months you can eat almost anything thats true I can eat three out of for things that I'am not suppose to eat! I hope I helped

I had braces and truthfully, it isn't that bad. My teeth [bottom mostly] looked like a bomb exploded down there and I was sooo scared that the braces were gonna hurt, but when I first got them on, all I felt was the metal and no slimy teeh haha [you'll get what I mean if you get braces] and all of those rumors that it's really hard for you to eat because the braces hurt soo much, it's all lies. It doesn't hurt, well, the second or third day it may be a little sore and uncomfortable at first but that only lasts for like one day.
Braces allow you to have perfecdt teeth, and you get to pick colors and everything :] I have a retainer now, and I have to wear it until my teeth stop like moving around, but that's the only minor downside of braces.
My sister has braces and she has very staright teeth but some of them were beginning to become crooked so they put braces on her. Most people have braces, so don't worry about it, even when you are getting the braces put on and taken it off, it doesn't hurt at all.
No worries, it's finee :]
