I've had braces for about a year and 7 months. They loving suck ass.
My orthodontist repairs your first 3 broken brackets but after those 3 you have to pay 25$ just for 1 bracket to be fixed. The thing is the brackets come off of my teeth without me even doing anything. It's as if they were tightening my braces too much to the point where it would rip off my back brackets.
So last night I was talking with my father and my best friend and while I was talking I heard a popping noise go off. I didn't know what it was until I felt something small and metal on my tongue. I wasn't eating hard foods, I wasn't drinking corrosive juices from fruits, And I brush 2-3 times a day. So now I have to pay 25$ all because a bracket on my tooth came off.
I have to wear my braces for about another year, Roughly. My sister is excited to get braces even though her teeth are fine. I can't wait to see her complain about braces with the stupid lisp you get when you first get braces. You'll eventually get use to having braces and your lisp will go away but it sure is loving embarrassing at first because it makes you sound like a moron.
When you have braces, Food will get stuck in every single part of your mouth. Normal tooth brushes can't get that stuff out because of the wires and brackets so you have to use a water pick to get it cleaned out. (A water pick is a tool that fires pressurized streams of water.) I can't use normal floss because of my wires.
When you get a sharp piece of wire poking your cheeks in your mouth, You will cry your ass off from the pain. If you don't know what it feel like then heres a demonstration; Take a needle and stab the inside of your mouth about 50 times. I have to take wax and put wax over the sharp pieces so that my cheeks don't get torn the forget up and have scars.
I can't loving wait to get this torture device out of my mouth. The only good thing about having braces it you'll go from having the worlds most forgeted up horse teeth to having perfect teeth.
