    It's okay, don't be scared. I currently have braces and have really gotten used to them. For the first few days to a week you will feel a pressure on your teeth and they will be a bit sore, but after that it's (mostly) painless until you have your next appointment. Just make sure you brush your teeth really well while you have them! :)

    Just do what they tell you when they tell you and you might get them off sooner then you think.

    don't get colored bands, they look dirty, cheap and it draws attention to your mouth.

    The initial achy pain WILL go away sooner then you think. The pain means that your teeth are starting to move which is good
