--mollie1189

I had braces for almost two years and got them off last February. Now I have to wear a clear retainer on top and have a metal retainer attached to the back of my teeth on the bottom. Braces aren't that bad, but I would rather wear a retainer than them...
--Merlene1

I have braces. I am getting them off May 17,2012. At first I thought that what people were saying about how much my braces were gonna hurt was kind of wrong because I thought my braces were gonna make me feel more grown up
--TheRealMads

YES I DO BECAUSE THEY HELP YOUR TEETH AND IT CAN HURT TO GET THEM
--breonna675

anessa3? Don't worry; braces only hurt the first couple of days after you get them or after you get them tightened. I got my braces off the summer of 2011.

I got braces the other day. I am considering pulling every single one of my teeth out! they feel so sore! When i complained to my orthodontist, he said that when i get them off, i'll have a "beautiful smile". I really don't care a bout a beautiful smile. I look hideous!
--anessa3

The typical cost of braces will be somewhere around $4,500 to $10,000 altogether. AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!
