These days, most orthodontists or dentists don't tighten your braces. Most of them just Put in a bigger wire each time you have a checkup. This procedure can hurt the first two days. Not as bad as when you get your braces though.

What happens when you have your braces and your baby teeth falls out?

if your baby teeth falls out, it doesn't matter because it was going to fall out anyway. the whole point of braces are to make your teeth tighten and get them straight so when it was tightening your teeth, i think it caused your baby teeth to wobble and fall. but its ok because at least its not your adult teeth so dont worry! :)
