Answer 1

The first week it HURTS so buy tylenol.

Your mouth gets so dry while you are getting them put in.

After when you want to eat, eat jello and soup. Soft foods. Seriously.

Make sure you get wax and when they clip the wire at the back of your mouth, test out whether it will hurt when you speak and such. That was my mistake and I got a huge sore.

When playing sports...well just be careful. You could have gotton invisilign or the braces that go on the back of the teeth.

Good luck! And wait for your gorgeous smile...

Answer 2

I found that my jaw was stiff the day after getting braces, but overall it was pretty painless.

As for playing sport, ask your orthodontist for a mouth guard. They will make one for you that will fit over your braces. It will cost more, but you shouldn't play sport without one because, as you say, if you get hit in the face you may bleed.

Don't worry about it too much, take it easy and only eat soft foods for the first couple of days.

You will be fine!
