I got braces last year, a few days before Christmas and yes my teeth did hurt for a couple of weeks to a month. Now that I have had them for a while, they only hurt when they are moving. Take some Ibeporfine to help the pain. It works. For colors try pink or blue. Good Luck!!

No worries kiddo, there is hope! You can eat regular foods, even sandwiches, just cut them in to pieces and eat them that way, instead of biting into a steak or sandwich and hurting your teeth because the braces are now there. Your mouth will get used to them being there, I promise, just give it a couple weeks, k?
And as far as a color goes? Get something that matches most of your outfits, or get like white or clear, they go with everything!

Well usually the pain goes in about a week or so, it depends on how messed up the teeth are.. Then after a while, you'll be able to eat hard food.. So dont worry you just need time and you'll be fine.. :)
Good luck, and i wish you all the best..

you have to get used to the braces, your mouth is still adjusting, give it time! i have braces now, i've had them for 2 years, so i know what im talking about.
don't get yellow, i like to get pink!

i remember when i had braces..
a new adjustment would usually hurt for a week or so.
in your case, maybe a week more.
try dark blue.
