Braces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

I am getting braces! Who wants a blog?

Braces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
on a scale of 1-10, i would says the hurt factor is 5





i think the braces on the second day hurt the most. spacers hardly hurt





***u can get as many pattern of colors u want, but dont go more than 2





***pink and light blue are cute colors





***NEVER get white or clear bands cause white looks like food is stuck in ur braces and clear like it u eat ketchup or a lollipop or somethin, they stain





***they put the bands, and then every time u go back u get to choose new colors





k


i have gotton em on over 6 times (dont ask!)





it doesnt hurt dont worry-it is just a long process and it tastes kinda bad





they give u a band on ur molars fiist, to see ur size and stuff





first theu put this positioner thing is ur mouth, it makes your mouth stretch a lkot so they can see ur teeth, it will bother u for a minute or 2 but u will get used to it, u keep that thing on the WHOLE time





then there are these things that look like shots and stuff, i got really freaked out when i first saw them but actually, they dont go in ur mouth! this is the cement that they put on ur braces then they stick the braces on ur teeth


**the cement kinda tastes bad!





they do this the first time and every time u get them tightened:





they will put the rubber bands on ur braces with things that look like sisscors (they dont hurt) after that they put the wire-this is the most anoying part cause after they slip it in ur mouth, they have to cut it to make it fit right





then that is it!Ur done


but after u do it, ask ur doctor for dental wax, dental cotton balls, and rubber cover up





***each person is different i bleed a little on the first day and i put a few cotton balls in my mouth for like 3 minutes





when u get home use ACT mouthwash and for the first hour, ur teeth may be a little numb so drink mainly fluids-clear fluids





then for the first day or 2 ur teeth may be a little sensitive so stick with eating soup, pasta, pudding, jello, beans, yogurt, custard, fries, milkshakes, ice cream, and soft foods-avoid straws





every night use Peroxyl mouthwash for like a week to keep ur gums storng from cuts and use dental wax and rubber coverups so u wont get blisters, they hurt a little but arent that bad. avoid sleeping on ur side, try to keep ur head straight up for a couple of days





every morning and every night use the Peroxyl mouthwash again for 2 weeks then after that just use ACT mouthwash to keep ur teeth and gum s healthy. get some Super floss, made for braces-i sugest elictrical toothbrushes they keep ur mouth cleaner





dont worry-trust me- i have had my braces on for almost 4 years, i just got em off about two months ago-i luv my new smile!!!
Reply:There really not as bad as everyone says they are annoying at first but you get use to them very fast just dont miss any appoitments and they will be off before you know it
