They cut up your mouth and tongue

first time wearers the pain from the teeth being drawn together by the tightened wire.
then the pinching of the brackets, soreness of the gums from the band around the teeth.. then the wires which aren't properly bent can cut into the tongue and cheeks.
brackets on the front teeth rubbing and cutting into the lip...
the metal taste...
the cleaning using that tiny toilet looking brush so on.
but the worst is when you first get them and they put the wire on and tighten it.
the pain that comes slowly afterwards is really bad.
and the gums get real swollen.

The cuts that the braces make in your mouth.
The food that gets stuck in your braces.

not being able to eat certain food that you love. its worth giving them up though because you'll look back on those two years you had to wear braces and be thankful when you're getting compliments on your smile! : )

They hurt like heck after you get them tightened, but after that you don't really notice them.
