Oh yes. Braces = expect discomfort, ulcers, sore lips cut in your mouth and on your tongue and getting food stuck in them. Take some mild headache pills for the discomfort and expect after most adjustments. I'm not trying to scare you or be mean its just they way it is. Braces are hard work and after a few months our teeth will look alot straighter. I bet they feel weird don't they. Hope this helps. Sekhmet

Baking soda will give a bleaching/whitening effect on your teeth. If you whiten your teeth while having braces, then you will not whiten the areas where the brackets are attached to your teeth. When the braces are removed then you will end up with small square patches that are darker than the rest of your teeth.
