      I just got my braces a couple of months ago. And as an adult, it takes a lot to get use to. But wax has been helping a bunch

    Another tip for flossing: If possible, invest in a waterpik flossed or any other kind of water flosser! It makes flossing much easier!

    I got my braces on yesterday, and they don’t hurt only when I try to eat, and it’s somewhat uncomfortable. my main concern is just trying to keep everything clean and healthy.

      @@mecool5997 my breathing hasn’t changed at all so it stayed the same , but eating the first few days definitely is a bit difficult to get use to since it’s a weird feeling and you’re mouth will be sore. But after you get use to it, you don’t really even feel the braces at all!

    I disagree with automatic toothbrushes, I’m 3 months in I’ve decided to stick with an orthodontic manual tooth brush. Automatic toothbrushes hurt and makes me scared that something will break, also that my teeth are sensitive.

I’ve had mine for 3 months now, and I’ve definitely gotten used to it a lot more and I can eat again, it’s a very new type of pain and it felt awful and foreign at first but you just gotta get used to it! It doesn’t really affect breathing either :) just kinda makes you become a mouth breather cause keeping your mouth closed 24/7 hurts at first lmao
