I had Braces. I made friends with them and when I got them off I was sad.

Food does get stuck in braces, but not all the time. I know this because I have braces right now and not everyting I eat gets stuck in them. When you first get braces, they hurt and it feels awkward, but you get used to them pretty quickly. The worse part about braces are the spacers (or expanders as you call them)

thats what you mean by expander!?!? my friend and sister had one of those and they said they got food caught up there all the time and then they couldn't get it out. how long do you have to have it in?

i had braces for about...7 years. xD true story. no, my teeth weren`t that crooked. i just had a stupid orthodontist who thought me gettin` braces at age 6 would be a good idea then take them off when i`m in 8th grade. >_>

i had them, they sucked a fat one. my brother had these things that looked like rocket launchers in his mouth, it was tight.

Ha, I got braces today actually. I had the expander thing, it sucked. Food gets caught in the top and it kills when you have to crank it every night. Anyways, the braces don't really bother me at all. I barely notice that they're there.
