I got braces fitted yesterday and I'll tell you something...
...they fucking hurt!
I can't chew or bite because the brace is all pully and making my teeth ache. They had to give me wax to cover up all the jaggedy bit that are sharp and jaggy and that's stupid because it surely can't be so hard to make braces that don't tear your gums and cheeks to ribbons.
I got an ouchy booboo! :(

I had to wear them for quite a while myself :(
Just wait until the metal comes out at the back and sticks in your cheek, now that hurts
Nice going Dan, give the poor girl nightmares why don't you :P

Don`t worry about the braces thay seen to more and more popular these days. :01:
I never got wax though :dry:
/jealous
they dont hurt after a week or 2
I'm not worrying about the way they look, I think they're cute but I wish they didn't hurt so damn much. (I've got greeeeeen ones!!)Quote:

Thanks for that, I'm going to California for the Easter holidays. :)
i was given wax but they never told me what it was for, now the inside of my mouth is all scarred
my advice: be abusive to your orthodentist while you can, you won't see them again after your treatment is done, and you'll regret not making them feel as miserable as you
Thats quality advice :lol:Quote:

That's interesting, I was under the impression it’s best not to get on the bad side of the person who is poking around your mouth with sharp metal objects.Quote:

my advice is to laugh at people with them
LA area? :shifty:Quote:

Whatever you do dont walk the streets of Bakersfield. You are liable to run into Buck Owens and Dwight Yoakum. :rolleyes:Quote:

I suggest biting people to help the process along.
