Do Braces Hurt???????

Question

well ive been thinking about getting braces

my teeth arent that bad(does that make a difference?)

and how much do they cost in australia?

Answer 1

well at first they do hurt, because they ve got to move ur teeth into a straight orderly fashion

they make a really big difference, you have no idea,

i thought my teeth were straight, except for 1-2 down the bottom, and now they re completely straight,

i had them on for 18 months

i live in australia

and they costed around $4 000 --> this included all the tightenings, fix ups, and the plate

but i had the clear ones up the top - theyre more expensive

depending where u go

i got mine off last april

GOOD LUCK

Oh! yes braces hurt when they were tight to your teeth. You will feel little pain and when you will eat your teeth will feel soar for couple of days. The ugly metal braces are not at all comfortable, so people are going for invisible braces. They are real comforts and secret too. What do you want more, freedom from ugly braces in fashionable way. Try them for the great Tom Cruise smile...

Answer 3

yes they hurt! and if you're teeth aren't that bad, why bother? plus - quite a few people i know (myself included) ended up with crooked teeth anyway (even after wearing the plate for a few years). i guess teeth just don't like being perfect.

Answer 4

braces on your teeth themselves do not hurt, it's when you go to the orthodontist and they tighten them down do you experience any kind of pain and it is more pressure it'll last for about a week for your teeth to spread out enough for the pain to go away, and if your teeth aren't that bad then why put yourself through it? as far as the price in Australia I have no idea

Answer 5

they hardly hurt...well that what i have found. your teeth only usually ache for a day after they are tightened and that is it for me...also my teeth are quite far out of place so most prob wont hurt as much if you teeth are straighter

Answer 6

Everyone says they hurt and mine didn't hurt...They caused slight discomfort and I even had teeth overlapping and backwards.I am a goalkeeper for my varsity soccer team and during a tournament i got punched in the mouth when I jumped over someone to catch a ball.They laid my lip open pretty good but my braces didn't hurt there on after.But I believe they have some of the greatest long term benifits ever one you will have a near perfect smile and two you can brush every tooth in your mouth so that you can prevent cavity's.I have no idea how much they cost in Australia but I think mine were $5000 i dont remember.But if you are content with your smile then I wouldnt get them.

They make a big difference. Braces don't hurt that bad. Yes your teeth will be sore but this only lasts a couple of days. Then goes away. When your sore you can put ice packs on your face. When you exercise your sore but the results are worth it. There is nothing to be afraid of. The only time you will be sore is right after going to the orthodontist for an adjustment.

The above poster said his teeth still ended up being crooked. Yes this will happen if you do not wear your retainers at night when you sleep but that is so not a big deal.

Answer 10

yes they do hurt but u dnt need them if your teeth arent bad. and plus their expencive

Answer 11

Well i would recommend not getting braces if you dont need them. They do hurt for the first couple of days but then you get used to them. Basically they cost around $3000-$5000 for top and bottom, but really it depends where you live, it could be more or less. Anyway like i sed it hurts really bad for like 2 days and then the pain subsides. Hope this helps
