    No pain here. First time I had any real discomfort was when the archwires were bent to move teeth in specific ways ... which was after three years of treatment.

    Make sure you keep well hydrated, plus cover any brackets with plenty of wax, so that your mouth toughens without you getting sores.

    Good luck with feeling heaps better quickly!

    It's wonderful you only have to have braces for such a short time Shari! This time should fly!
