Effects Of Braces
2016-11-07 08:21:19 · answer #2 · answered by ? 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
One of the MOST popular side effects of wearing braces is that you are more kissable during the brace wearing time. Isn't that the reason to get braces anyway....to be more kissable? I've also heard, though it's not confirmed, there is some LONG TERM side effect of getting straight teeth out of the deal too.
I dunno.....but the kisses would be worth getting the metal, straight or not.
Brace Away!!!!!

Since I currently am wearing braces, I can give quite a detailed account.
For the positive side, they straighten your teeth. Also, the color of the bands/ligatures can match your eyes/clothing/favorite sports teams, etc.
On the other hand, they can be quite a hassle to clean (flossing is a must), they cut your cheeks and gums up because of the exposed metal parts (especially when you first get them on and if they change bands), and you can get made fun of (which does not happen often at all). They are a special hassle when you play a brass instrument (namely a trombone, tuba, trumpet, or French horn)

They hurt and cut you up sometimes. Also you can have a relapse if your not careful. For instance I had braces over two years and now I have them again. I dont have crooked teeth but my top and bottom row of teeth dont touch. My mouth reshaped again from my strong tongue. Other than that there is no side effects.

sometimes they cut into your gums, but they make a wax that you can put on the braces where they cut in. your teeth get sore when you get them tightened. I would not advise drinking to much soda. I had my braces on for 5 years(it was supposed to be 2,but I moved a lot). I loved soda. that's all I would drink literally well to make a long story short the soda ate away at my teeth around the brackets. when I had them removed(they pull hard to get them off) It caused a couple holes in my teeth. so stay away from carbonated beverages.

Pain on the first days... sore inside the mouth, and every time they adjust the braces the pain returns....easily treated with pain killers. If you do not maintain a strict regime of hygiene you might end up with stained teeth. The best side effect is that your smile is drastically improved, it is all worth it.

i have had braces but before i got them my friend told me that her orthadontist told her that your teeth could become very fragile and weak due to the tigtening of the teeth by the ortadontist. also marks were the braces were could be left behind if u dont brush properly

nothing. I wore braces for two years as a teen and thank heavens. It paid off. Actually I wear Invisalign now at night becuase I am finding that they are shifting on me again as I got older. The invisalign keeps it straight.
