I had them. Take it from me DON'T break them, otherwise you'll wind up with them on for extra 6 weeks each time.

It feels damn good when they get ripped off your teeth though. Being able to lick your own gums is unusually pleasurable after 2 years of not being able to.

I have had them three years, and will be getting them off sometime before hell freezes over. They don't hurt, like everyone says they do, and it gives you the most awesome feeling when you run your tounge over the metal front. *-)

Had em for about 2 years. I remember when I had them for the first week, and it was hell. Eventually, you get used to them though.

I'm still wearing a retainer at night, which can be better or worse than braces.

Give it a week or two, and you'll be used to them. Every time they get tightened, they will probably hurt for another day or so. Not too bad overall, just annoying.

I never understood how people break them. I've played alot of contact sports with them and I never broke them.


OMIGOSH, I forgot to say, where a mouthguard when you play sports. Your lips will be bleeding freely if you get hit in the mouth, and will sting for days.

I've had braces for 2 years now, and I'll have them for one more year, too :(

I've had them for about a year now. I notice them slightly because they make my smile a little wonky. But really they make no difference to anything - I still get hit on all the time. >.<
