Usually, braces only hurt when first put on and during tightenings. If you are getting braces soon, after you get them on, there may be some soreness for a few days. Remember this is totally normal.
During tightenings (about once a month) your teeth will feel sore as well. Your orthodontist is tigthening the braces to your teeth, so you may feel a little bit of pain for a couple days post each tightening.
Not to worry though, your braces experience will only last for about two years. Afterwards, you come out with a radiant smile!

when they put the barces on it is a bit painful when they attach the wire to certain teeth and the mouthwash cleaning/whitening stuff tastes minging and when he puts metal rings on the back teeth it scrapes yoor teeth a bit until they find the right size and for me tightening didnt hurt at alll but if it does point your feet and clench yoor fists and sing a song in your head or count the squares on the ceiling or bite if you bite hard enough they will stop hehe but it is different for everyone. I heavnt had my braces off yet :D

it doesnt hurt at all to get them put on just afterwards it will be sore, and i don't have mine off yet but i've heard that it doesnt. You might feel pressure when you get them off though. You usually get them tightened every 2-3 months and thats not as bad as everyone makes it sound. it doesnt really hurt at all while they tighten them but a few hours later it does. It still isnt that bad just achy and you start to get used to it.

It depends.
But usually all you feel is a little pressure when getting them off.
and when getting them tightened.

No and No. After they were put on, they were sore for a couple days, but nothing unbearable.
