I just got my braces on Wednesday, and it's hate-love with me... I know that if I keep up good diet and hygiene habits, I can have a purty set of pearly whites. But having them is soooo annoying.
I literally take 15 minutes to completely brush my teeth. x.x I also have these wires, bands, etc. poking my mouth. D:< But the worst thing is dietary changes. NO SODA! At least this is what my orthodontist said. And the list goes on, and on... Every food I love, I cannot touch for 18 months.
Now, should I be as strict as he says about my diet? And could anyone give me any sort of tip?
Oh, and if you've had them, share your experience with braces. UI
