I have braces.

No Shots =) Just really sore teeth for the upcoming week.
It doesn't hurt when you get them on, but it does hurt after.
You won't be able to eat anything other than soup & jello for at least 3-4 days.
You can't popcorn kernels [like the unpopped seeds]
Sticky candy like starburst & jolly ranchers [except I do anyway!]
or gum with loads of sugar.
[the sugar seeps up into the braces and its hard to brush out!]

Colors:
There are alot of choices. You'll know once you get there! =)

Hey i just got my braces off liike a month ago!

but no you dont have to get a shot.

and really for the first week u cant eat really anything except like soft stuff.

good luck!

Yeah, they'll hurt for the first few days, and then each time you get them adjusted they'll be sore for a bit. Pick the colors you like, but you can get new colors at each adjustment, so it's not like you're stuck with anything.

hello, well braces can really hurt at first depending on your teeth there is no shots and most likely your ortho will tell you no soda or gum but you can still eat and drink soda and gum . no hard foods the first 2 weeks.eat soft foods

with the colors you can choose different colors each month or no color at all every month you get your braces tightened

i have braces and no shots. i ate mashed potatos for a week but eat soft stuff.

No you do not need a shot cuz it doesn't hurt when you get them on but slightly when they are actually on (don't worry, the pain goes away in like 3 days)

you can't eat really hard foods
like corn(unless you cut it)
and apples(unless in slices)
carrots

gum(i do anyways and it doesn't like do anything)

IDK what colors you should get

when you start wearing your rubber bands, WEAR THEM!!!
they will help you get them off sooner!!

you probably won't need a shot to get your braces on unless their is a complication.

and you can't eat because your teeth will most likley be very sore. keep in mind that the pain is different for everyone so you may be able to eat.

for the colors get colors that you won't get sick of and make sure to steer clear of white because it will make your teeth look yellow, second go for the darker shades. for example light pink may fade and look white. yellow is not the best shade against your teeth either! remember to just get colors that you like. patterns with no more than three shades are also cute and fun.

just remember to keep them clean and brush your gums. it may reduce the amount of time that you have to have them on! oh aslo, you may not like the way you look at first but you will relize that your just not used to it! :)

i hope you have fun with your braces and remember that they will be off before you know it!!!!!

no shots and it dont hurt . first few days soft food then you will get the hang of it . bright colors are better i think i have had red , silver now i have blue and orange i think the brighter ones are less noticeable .. also it kinda hurts at first but chewing gum will ease the pain after you get use to them
