emmet_<3 It'll be ok after awhile. The couple of months are the worst but after that you get used to them and then it's no big deal.

I had braces for a while, i didn't mind them too much, I just had a problem with wearing my bands, so I had to keep them on for alot longer.
I had more problems with my retainer, cause I never could remember to wear it.
At least with braces you don't have to take them off and stuff, they are always there!

I have an open bite, so I'm getting it treated with an expander. I get that off around October, then I get top braces put on. I already have braces on the bottom. I kinda like having them, because I get to change the colors all the time :D and lots of my friends have them too. They don't hurt as much as they used to.

Well I look forward to meeting you. ;) Just kidding.

I think it's just the fact that you have colored squares and wires covering your teeth.

I have braces for 2 years now.
at first it was fun, but having them for so long now is not as fun as it seems anymore.
and the elastics. are so painful. I wake up at night because it hurts so much.
but the changing the colors every month are pretty cool! :D

Ugh...I hated having braces. They were awful. But it's totally worth it when they come off and your teeth are straight!

How ironic that I found this thread today, right after getting my braces tightened!

i've had my braces since May 12th...I absolutely hte them. I've gotten used to the way they look but I hate having to brush my teeth after every bite I eat, and the pain is terrible. I just got my head-gear today and when i tried it on it hurt so bad I almsot started crying...and I'm a pretty tough person.

*sigh* Three months down, 21 to go! :cry: :shock:

I just got my braces off a few months back and I smile WAY more :D
But unfortunately I have to get them put on again before I have jaw surgery *shudders* after highschool :cry:

i had braces for two years before finally getting them off last november.
i can't really say that i hated how they feel, because after the first few months i didn't even notice they were there. what i can say that i didn't like how they looked when i smiled for school pictures. ugh. i am soo happy i don't have em any more.

but, for those of you who have them or are getting them, don't sweat. its all worth it in the wrong run. :)
