Mad_Scientist 8 Posted July 31, 2012 Don't' fucking chew gum, and chew something for the first hour of getting your braces no matter how hungry you are. It hurts, insanely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teezar 0 Posted July 31, 2012 Don't play any brass instrument until you get used to your braces, putting that cupped piece of metal up against your face as firmly as you need to hurts like fucking hell. Thank god I got my braces taken off last year. But yeah, best of luck dude, try not to fuck up the braces, that shit's expensive. Also: are you getting expanders and springs and whatnot? Or just the standard wire and bracket? Just curious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HaaDron 4 Posted July 31, 2012 What instrument do you play teezar? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teezar 0 Posted August 1, 2012 I play trumpet, that's why I haven't been on as much lately, I've been spending 7 hours a day at fucking marching band camp xD. But, i must say being in marching band is easier than I had anticipated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heisenberg 1 Posted August 1, 2012 What are you, 12? DO YOU EVEN LIFT, KIDDO? Jk lol, I would say dont screw it up. You gotta have them on longer if you do. Also look out for biting your face with them or hitting yourself by accident. During a New Year's party of 2009, I sliced the inside of my cheek and now I have a scar there. Be sure to also stock up on weapons and ammunition for the coming doomsday(s). Also don't chew gum, it gets all stuck and is a pain to get out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mad_Scientist 8 Posted August 1, 2012 For you information, the kid does lift. I mean, he holds a fucking trumpet for fucking hours for Christ's sakes; that's acknowledge-able. I've seen fuckers in music class exaggeratedly telling me of how difficult in reality it is. Nevertheless, we're drifting off topic here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easy 7 Posted August 1, 2012 For the first week- week & a half, you're not gonna wanna eat anything. You'll have too, but it will hurt. If possible, have soup, ravioli, that kind of stuff for a while until you get used to it. Then after a couple weeks, you'll be eating whatever. But on some of your teeth, it will still be sore, so if you get that, chew on the other side, because it hurts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
