Answer 1

im 8 and have braces and ill tell you what i went through if you add my myspace because i dont want to share it with everyone

heres my myspace

myspace.com/babygirl_47875

and dont worry about it, it was just the painfullest thing ever in my life, i cryed for days and after your done it hurts so bad to eat and brush your teeth for 3 weeks, you will feel the pain everyday the braces are on, you will wish you were dead and you will look so ugly with those ugly things in your mouth, everyone looks hideous with braces

Answer 2

I have braces so i know from experience that it is about an hour ordeal. But first they will measure and decide where they want the brackets will go.(the brackets are like the metal squares on your actual tooth) And once they decide that they will start glueing on the bracket with this gross tasting glue, so keep your tongue down. And after that they will put on the bottom ring which is a metal ring that goes over your bottom molars to keep the other things in place. Once all the bracket adjusting is done and the bottom rings are on(which only go on the bottom) they will pop in the wire and your done with that. But AFTER all that they will give you a big shpeal about how u gotta take core of them and thats about it.

Answer 3

Ive just got myne off, after 6 months basically it doesnt hurt getting the brace put on they just put this glue type solution on all of your teeth and stick the brace onto each seperate tooth. Basically tht bit wont hurt however the dentist may tighten your brace evry month or so causing slight discomfort.

Thank You

For me, it was very boring really. You will have to open your mouth for almost two hours if both the upper and lower teeth are going to be braced. Usually , there's a mouthpiece for that so that you can't close your mouth.

Also, you may want to prepare very very very soft foods.
