I got mine on last year... i think, i dont really remember,
At first, they feel a little squeezed, but about 2-3 hours later, BAM! It killlllls, you can't eat, like, at ALL.
Then after a while, you get used to it. After tightenings, its not as bad as the first day, but if you are really sensitive, you might wanna chill on the harder foods. They're not that bad a month later. I have to wear headgear to bed XD because I have a *not really noticable unless you open my mouth and stare at it with a light* overbite. Once again, at first it kills. Then, its not so bad. head gear kills for about a month. Then, I had a chain, and that closes the two front teeth gap, and it hurts when she put it on. (just a tad bit) and after for about a day or two. I had to get mine taken off today because I don't floss the gap (I mean, who the heck does???) and so it got irritated when my chain didn't make it any better. Ah well, braces aren't easy. At my school, some guys think braces are sexy. o.O
