Author Topic: Getting braces  (Read 1895 times)

I used to have braces; they did a pretty neat job in fixing my used to be forgeted up teeth. Wearing those rubber bands in your mouth can be annoying but if you want results it's a must. It won't be long for you to get used to them.

My brackets are detatching on the bottom, I just got dismissed from school and I went to go fix them.

Feels kinda weird, just had some pancakes. Now, I'm bracing for the worst (it's going to get sore soon).
ha

Don't eat hard food for a while til your teeth are straightish. Then you can afford to because the brackets will be under less stress.

About a month after I got them, I was like forget this, I ate all sorts of hard candy lol

I pretty much said forget it to the braces diet after a couple weeks. I was already underweight, I didn't need that bs.

I'm getting braces in 3 - 6 months :(

Yeah, my dentist said for me to only eat hard stuff after a week or so.
EDIT: If you've seen the picture of myself, you'll probably notice that I have a huge overjet, and my teeth are actually shifting to the left.

So I had braces a couple years ago, and this is what I learned: you can eat popcorn/ chew gum/ eat anything you want because as long as you clean your teeth well, that stuff doesn't even matter

Surprisingly, I can chew 1 gum occasionally.

i never want braces because i eat apples every day (when we have them)
they're my favorite fruit
I have braces and I still sink my teeth into a good apple. Nothing happens.

It kind of depends on what type of braces you have

How long do you have to have them?

I get mine off Monday
