What do they do when they put on braces?

Answer 1

I am 15 and I wear braces. First, they use this plastic device to hold your mouth open. Next, they clean your teeth. Then, then carefully attach each bracket to each tooth, securing each one in place with a liquid cement. Don't lick this as it leaves a bitter aftertaste. Then they use this special plasma light to activate the glue. Afterwards, they attach the arch wire by popping it into each individual bracket. You now have braces.

Answer 2

Well, first the dentist cleans your teeth like a regular cleaning appointment. Next, they put this special glue on your teeth and put on the brackets on by on. Then, they use a laser ( it doesn't hurt) to activate the glue. After, they put on the wire. Meanwhile, they put on the colors you want for your braces. It depends if you want colors or not. The braces don't hurt as much as people make it seem. So don't worry. I'm getting my braces in late August so I'm all ready. Hope I answered all your questions. Thanks.:)

They basically just take the bra cits and glue them to all the teeth that need to be straightened and then place a wire in them to hold. There is no set in stone time of how long you need to wear braces just depending on the kind of shape your teeth are in.

all you pretty much do is lay there and do nothing you just sit there while they are putting the braces on
