Invisible braces aren't really invisible, they're just colored to sort of blend in with your teeth. If someone looked at you for more than a second they could tell you had them. I had braces for probably a year at most... they were pretty painful for a day after tightening (occasional) but other than that it was pretty minimal. Getting my wisdom teeth out was hella worse than all the time spent with braces + retainer, and that was only a week. It's funny that I remember very little about actually having braces, but yeah I do understand where you're coming from. | |||

Ouch; it must really hurt if you get braces. I didn't think it would be that bad... I wonder what it's like having them. Wisdom teeth; I haven't had mines taken out yet... I might have to get that done soon, though... =\ | |||

I'm the one flying in the back. I still have braces and they contributed to lip bustage in the mosh pit. |

Yea, I had mine for a decade and I skipped out on retention (using a retainer for life or whatever) but I still have a bottom retainer that will stay in the back of my lower front six for the rest of my life.
The worst part about it all would be when they go to tighten it and when you first get it. Eventually, you get used to it...but the first week after the tighten is the worst. Even worse is when you get teeth out besides the wisdom teeth like I had. I have 6 total out but you couldn't even begin to tell what two in front I'm missing now. That's because I had I had a backchain from the first molar and first premolar that continually tightened over months until both my top second premolar gaps were gone. So yea, it's a pain...but I have insanely straight teeth now. |

Originally posted by KATW F*cking A! *adds KATW to my cool list* I had braces for 4 years, they hurt for weeks after every checkup. It's nice to get them off though. It'll feel like an invisible jelly is resting around the front of your teeth and it's really cool! But I feel sorry that you have to go through the first few days of pain. After awhile you'll get used to it. I hate my new dentist because he put holes in my teeth. There were no large abbrasions (let alone, any at all), the guy took a hook and put all his arm muscle in trying to make holes in my teeth like he's digging for gold. Cost me $100 for each one. |
