I always hear people say things along the line of "braces are so cool! I wish that I could have them!", but little do they know, braces are a nightmare! Once you get braces, your entire life revolves around the death traps! Braces suck, and before you know it, you're life becomes a living hell. Forget straight teeth, who needs them anyways?
1. Brushing your teeth becomes much harder…and who knew that you have to use a “threader” to floss!
2. You lose the ability to chew gum properly! The gum winds itself around the wires and becomes an icky, sticky mess!
3. The pain that you feel as your teeth shift, causes you to want to rip that evil contraption right out of your mouth.
4. The alignment gets worse, before it gets better
5. You constantly get corn, popcorn kernels, and other meals lodged between your teeth and the wire!
6. You have that wire in back of your mouth, stabbing you in the cheek…and the wire just stabs even harder when your teeth shift!
7. If you’re lucky enough, you even develop a slight lisp. A lisp that was nonexistent until the introduction of braces.
8. You have to devote all of your time to making sure that the evil metal traps don’t hold the smell of your food throughout the day.
9. People think that you’re younger than you are!
10. DRY LIPS!
11. Eating rice is now a foreign concept.
12. Breaking brackets on your favorite foods.
13. You have to stop eating apples for God sake!
14. That dreadful headache after you get them tightened.
15. You can no longer lick things off of your teeth!
