Do you think its cool or awful thing to wear?? Im going to put it on soon but I am kind of scared to think that my appearance will change. Moreover, I heard that it hurts like hell at the early stage. Can you share some of your experiences with braces?? How is it like when you just put it?

it's really painful to put on braces for the very first time. at least for the first 2 weeks, when the dentist tighten the braces, u can hardly chew any of ur favourite food, except porridge or soup. be patient, coz that's what u sacrifice to get a nicely arranged teeth, u wont regret it. for me myself, i found that braces was irritating, coz i felt there's smthg that stuck in my mouth. i felt so uncomfortable, especially when i have to be choosey of what i can eat. coz when i ate outside, the food tend to stuck on my teeth. so i had to bring a toothbrush wherever i went. now, it's really common to wear braces. dun worry, u wont look weird. just bear with the pain, coz it's only in the short run =D
