Anyone that has braces I need your advice about whats go happen

Hi, I get braces in three days. Anyone that has braces I need your advice about whats go happen. Does it hurt?

Your mouth will be a little sore for a few days, just take nyquill, or some other pain reliever, and the soreness will go away. You wont be able to eat popcorn, or foods of that nature since they will get stuck in your gums, no gum or chips either. This is all I know, my sister was the ones with braces, not me, I hope this helped though. Yes, it does kind of hurt. Not getting them on, though that’s a little uncomfortable. But after, you’ll be sore, and you might not be able to eat certain foods for a couple days (even eating rice hurt me! I stuck to soup, yogurt, and other liquidy foods.) Before you get them put on, and for as long as you need, take a pain reliever like Advil every couple of hours. The wires may also poke into the side of your mouth towards the back a little; the doctor will probably give you some wax that you can put on the ends do it. You may also just have a weird feeling in your mouth, since it’s basically having a foreign object there. But in a couple days you’ll feel more comfortable, and after a couple weeks you won’t even notice they’re there. You will have to go back to get them tightened periodically, and it does hurt a little after they get tightened, but not as badly as at first. Just as a side note, the doctor will give you a list of things you shouldn’t eat, like gum, taffy, Starburst candies, and popcorn. Listen to him. If you eat these things, it is highly likely that you will break your braces. Not only is this uncomfortable, it also increases the time you will have to have them on. Well their going to make sure that there is no saliva in your mouth and suck it all out. Then glue the brackets to your teeth and put special covering things on your back teeth, like the wisdoms. They’ll ask you what color you’d like it to be. I always ask for clear. Then they’ll put a wire through your teeth and tighten it. The day you get your braces on they shouldn’t hurt a lot. They should be a little tense. The next day, though they will hurt and you need to only eat soft foods, no hard foods or it will make your gums feel so tender. This sensitivity can last for about 4 days. Your teeth will feel really loose, like their going to fall out. .Each time you get them tightened, the day after they’ll be sore. But, in the end, it is all worth it. Your teeth will be perfect and you’ll have a great smile. People usually have braces for at least a year. Remember to brush and take good care of your braces. I promise you one day you’ll be so happy that you got braces. I have braces yes they hurt when they go on, there not so painful after a few weeks but then you have to get them tightened which makes them hurt again also the metal will more then likely rub against the side of your mouth making it all cut and hurt but you get over it and its worth it.
