just got braces- ...any tips??

Hey guys!! for those who don't know me, im radhika. I just got braces yesterday(metal with blue bands) on my upper teth and they hurt like crazy. It is even hard to eat stuff(and brushing is annoying) but i was wondering if you guys had any tips. I read stuff on internet but id rather hear what you guys have to say from personal experience, friends, or relatives. Thanks!!🤗

It hurts for about three days.
Then at first brushing and eating is annoying but after a few weeks you'll get used to it.
I actually miss mines 😕😆

it takes time but u will get used to them

n for tips:

dont hard hard stuff
brush thoroughly

Aweehhh i never had braces but i know you can't eat hard stuff though.

okayyy i have braces sooo....

1. don't eat hard stuff (you probably know that already)
2. don't brush too hard or it'll hurt like crazyyy

everytime you get your braces tightened (it supposed to be every 6 weeks...) it's gonna hurt.. like afterwards.. it wont hurt right away but the next day it'll hurt like hell and you won't be able to eat hard stuff and it hurts for like 3-4 days

^^ atleast that happens to me everytime i come back from an appt. sooo yeah

hmmm oh and brush your teeth good ;)
flossing is good i guess but i don't floss LMAO but i'm supposed to

and if you're in school...ALWAYS keep a mirror w/ you and check your braces before you head to your next class cuz u never know that kinda shit you have stuck in your braces & it's embarassing if you didn't even knoww and someone points if out

LMAO. hope that helps =]

Putt them in the garrbejj

Ive had braces since 16th April 2003 and ive still got them now..yup 6 years! LOL.. i may be the longest person who has had braces lol.. seriously.

I really want to get braces, I don't know why though. 🤣

If you want to drink fizzy drinks you should use a straw, instead of from cup or bottle, because it goes straight down your throat instead of rushing through you teeth.

Also, drink alot of water, and avoid eating sweet stuff, you can eat once in a while but not everyday. Also avoid drinking warm drinks like tea, coffee, hot choco or capaccino for a few days.

I don't have any other tips, I would have more if I had braces.
