  1. well its pretty short and when your getting them on it doesnt hurt AT ALL but like a few days after your mouth is alittle sore ut it passes and get what ever colors u like no worries at all


  2. i went to a catholic school with green plad outfits so i'd get green to match my outfit or if i was bored i got colors to match the season like sep, nov and oct were orange, red and yellow and jan was dark and light blue, feb was red white and pink march was green ect...

    depends on your doctors. Sometimes you get a lady who presses down hard. and will "miss" and you can feel it. so they glue silver stuff to the middle of each tooth (ending with the molars) with special glue that they compare to "cement"but its clear. then they put a wire through the silver stuff and end at the molars where they tighten it and will cut off any excess wire. seriously if you can feel the wire or its not comfortable in the back of your mouth, tell them because it hurts if you find out later

    as for eating, i never listened to the list of things they told me not to eat although i was cautious so still have fun with food and good luck!

  3. they put glue on your teeth then still the brackets on the glue, and wait for them to harden, stay in place, then they connect them with wires.

    It doesnt hurt at first, but then the next day, it really hurts, after about a week, ALL of the pain goes away, and each month or so u get them tightened, the pain kicks in. When your teeth are completely straight, the braces dont hurt anymore because it pushed your teeth in the spot. Thats when u know you about to get your braces off:)

    Just remember to brush 2-3 times a day, use act(a fluoride mouthwash), and rubber bands(if your orthodontist says so) and also whatever your orthodontist tells u to use, USE

    i personally like blue and pick braces, but you should get colors u like, because u will be stuck with them for a while:)

    Hope that Helps and Good Luck

  4. when you get braces it will feel like all of your teeth are loose.

    i couldnt eat or brush my teeth for 5 days

  5. ok if they are putting them on you today then your going to get there and they are probably going to have u brush your teeth, and then u go sit back down and they have this thingy that stretches your mouth open so they can put them on. it doesn't hurt at all when they are putting them on because they are pretty much just gluing them to your teeth. the whole process should take about 30-45 minutes. and the only time it's going to hurt is probably a couple of minutes afterwards but it's not that bad and it will go away after a little while.

    and as for color just get whatever color you like.
