I want braces so bad! Well ,to make them less hateable, you should spend time choosing colors for them, and basically jsut have fun with them! Think of how beautiful your teeth will look liek after you get them on. Don’t worry, it’s not liek they are gonig to be on forever.

You shouldnt be ashamed of wearing braces. (My dad wears them!) You’ll get over it. But if you really hate them THAT much, try getting invisible ones, or colored ones. A girl in my class has green and purple for her brace’s colors, and they look very cute. And, once your done wearing them, just think! You’ll have beutiful, straight, teeth. I hope my advice helped.

What you`ll need:

* Lip Balm
* Lip gloss or stick with built in moisturizers
* 100% Pure Petroleum Jelly [ Like Vaseline]
* Soft, Wash cloth

How to do it

1. Apply a lip balm three times a day. {Morning,afternoon & evening]

2. Avoid matte lip stick. Lipgloss works better.pick a natural color.

3. If your lips are flaky apply the jelly on your lips & go over it with the wet wash cloth.

Keep your lips moisturizered. If there flaky they`ll attract unwanted attention.

PLEASE PICK ME!!!!!!

I’m 27 years old and I have braces on my bottom teeth for the second time in my life. I’ll be honest with you, they only get easier to deal with over time. But if you’re having a lot of pain I highly suggest putting the wax they give you over them until your mouth gets use to them being there. Just hand in there, remember that it’s usually only a year and a half or so, you can do it.

See if your dentist could give you spacers. There is some spacers that work just as good as braces. You put them in at night, sleep with them on and then you take them out in the morning!!!

Take a digital picture of yourself smiling. With a photo enhancement program like Photoshop, erase your braces and just leave your smiling teeth. Look at your picture without the braces and you will see what you will look like. It will be worth it.

Think of the "after" and I’m sure you’ll be encouraged.

I am really close to getting my braces taken off, and everyone can already tell the difference. Now I’m kinda regretting that I didn’t take before pictures so I could really see the change =)

Plus, time *will* fly.
