I had them (this is before I joined beach), I hated them....so I did everything to get them off.

Braces

I've had braces for a year now, and they're really not that bad, they just hurt for a week or two. The only real problem is that playing brass instruments is soo much harder.
I might be getting some this year. My teeth aren't bad. I begged my mom so I couldn't get them but my dentist said "it's not an option" -.-
I had it last June and it wasn't that bad.The only bad thing about having braces is that all the food you eat would be stuck in your braces (Ewww).
PS-What's the color of the band thing on your braces?Mine was blue then green

Mine are all pink.
My mouth has more scars then the rest of my body, that's a lot considering I pick at my scabs. I hate them, lol
I had them a few years ago and they hurt REALLY bad for me. The worst part was when you finally get them off, but the dentist makes you get a retainer so your teeth don't move again. Only it takes a couple weeks to actually get it and by then your teeth moved and wearing the retainer the first night HURTS.

well i play alto saxophone.....in marching band....in which you move.....alot.....owwww (but i learn to just use my lips which might/will out-tune my instrument so i push in alot to "balance" it i guess you could say)
PS: i am aloud to chew gum but the sugar free ones (orbit, stride, etc.)
Yeah, I can chew sugar-free, too.
I had bracers when I was younger, the end result is nice lol. I didn't mind them, first getting them on sucks, and everytime you go for a checkup if they tighten them or change the wires it sucks. But when you get them off, its the best feeling ever. Hard to explain it I guess but its great!
The braces arent that bad, its the spacers, and if you are so unfortunate, the pallet expander. I had a pallet expander and it is torture. Its a metal thing that goes on the roof of your mouth and pushes your back teeth apart, or something. It gives you a lisp and a gap, food gets stuck in it, and if you happen to get sick (like me) that food gets stuck in it again >.<
but now my teeth are Beautiful! lol

I had a pallet expander also... you have to tighten it with this stick every couple of days
then I got a retainer, then braces. There not that bad once you get used to them, but they HURT when you get them on. (Except for not being able to chew gum caramel, starburst, popcorn... ect ect) wearing my braces currently!

yeah I hate having to crank that. I just hated the whole thing lol. And I ate all of that stuff anyway, but I did avoid apples, unless they were cut
4? Psh. I had 9 in two visits.Meaty said:Try 4 teeth.
My braces don't bother me at all. (Besides the first week, of course) What I hate, though, Is this thingamajig in the back of my mouth that is supposed to fix my gigantic overbite. It's really uncomfortable, and I can't chew with my back teeth. No steak for me. D=
Epic shade of green ftw.
Ugh. I just found out that I'm getting rubber bands for my braces Tuesday :/ I doubt those are too bad but I'll probably sound rediculous. -__-

Oh yeah, rubberbands. They are too bad. They get thicker though, and that is when they start to suck. Don't worry about sounding funny, they dont mess up your speech if i remember right
