i just got mine today. you have to bite down on a bite stick that the dentist positions and then when it's halfway on it feels weird. its almost as if someone is trying to push your two sides (Where they fit it on your teeth) apart. don't worry its only a little pressure. it doesn't hurt it just feels weird at first. especially when you swallow. oh and if food gets stuck a friend of mine said a water pick helped i'd ask the dentist though too just to be sure.

Does it hurt when you put an expander in?

I got mine today and it didn't hurt at all, but you do feel a little sore when you come home....so take some medication to relieve it. And remember take medication before you hurt, the doctors always told me to take it before and not chase the pain, it will make you feel better if you take it right away. That's another guy, Im another editor. Well basically its what he said, its kinda hurts when you get home. Well, on the first time you try eating, eat soup, or a liquid like food. You probably don't know how to eat with it on, so,yeah. The first time i ate with it was at IHop, and trust me, it wasnt pretty. Anyway, when you expand it(turn the screws and make your teeth wider) it kinda huts. but you will get used to it. If you miss a day and you forgot, you have to turn it twice the next day. The dentist tells you not to, but it's a quicker way of soon getting them off. Hope this helped :] I am also another editor and i got mine on a couple months ago and it really does not hurt except if you have sesative teeth it might be sore because they have too get it on your teeth very tightly. But when you tightin it daily it doesnt hurt unless its done wrong you get use to it. but i got mine off a couple days ago and it hurts extremely, i was not exspecting it at all, your mouth will bleed but it only hurts while there doing it after a couple hours it doesnt hurt. Dont worry its worth it. hope this helpedd(:

Do braces feel good?

Only for about the first week, they usually hurt a lot, it is hard to chew or hit your teeth together when you talk, and they may cut the insides of your mouth.. After exactly a week though it is better. The pain usually depends on how bad the teeth are and the person. :)
