I’m going to the orthodontist in about a few days, first to get spacers, then brackets, then all the wires and stuff. One of my friends who went through the same process said the spacers didn’t hurt at all, but when she got the brackets it tasted horrible, she bled a lot, and it hurt a ton! I’ve heard other stories when the brackets didn’t hurt at all. Anyone have any personal experiences? I’m not sure what to expect! Thanks!

I’m told my jaws are nor entirely symmetrical, but I worry about that there is another way that I’m not informed about. The line between my front teeth does not line up with the tip of my nose and if my jaw grows some more, my teeth might have been ground for nothing.

I understand some girls use vaseline on their teeth to smile in pageants because of the nasty taste, but I have braces. I’m a guy in colorguard and always forget to smile during competitions, any suggestions?

I was at a high school concert last night, and the band was really good, and then at the reception after I was suprised at how many had braces. Then I was really impressed. Should I have been?
