Kissing and braces(dating/romance)
Hi!
So this might have been asked before, but here goes:
Anyone have any experience with kissing and braces??
We've all heard of the myth that the braces get stuck together, I doubt it, but well how do you avoid hurting the other part when french kissing?? Like I'm afraid the brackets will be in the way..
All advice would be appreachiated.
Hehe....

Bob Kitten's other half says...
from my point of view... i'm looking forward to getting the braces off now to see what it's like to kiss without them!As a couple we, of course, kiss occasionally...
From my point of view I always forget Bob Kitten has braces when we are kissing, they in no way feel uncomfortable or painful. Sometimes, I can feel the extra resistance...but it's actually very pleasant
So, please..go forth and kiss
Mr Lisa65 and I have kissed satisfactorily while I've had my braces on and he said he didn't really notice anything untoward. You should be fine, just wax up any rough spots beforehand (for your own comfort) and go gently to begin with till you feel comfortable.
As to activities involving the application of the braced mouth to other areas, I must admit to holding off on that, and strangely enough Mr Lisa65 has not requested it As well as braces I have a Nance palatal appliance, 2 screw implants and numerous wire ties and springs, and I just thought it was a bit risky. Now I'm in headgear too, and there's no way! I'll just have to make it up to him when I finally get all this stuff off.
There's been a good few threads on this *unsurprisingly* popular subject. A search should turn them up but here's a few to get you started.

I have to confess that I have "injured" the Mrs a time or two. Its been very rare, but on occasion I have been somewhat "aggressive" and pinched her lip between my braces and her teeth. Its not good for maintaining that romatic mood, but being the angel that she is she always forigves me.

I'm single and haven't dared to engage in any romantic activities yet. However, I'm sure that if you meet someone who likes you, he/she is going to laugh WITH you in stead of AT you if anything occurs due to the brace situation during the love act.

This was one of the things I was worried about when I got my braces on a week ago. When I first got home I didn't even want to show my boyfriend my mouth... but he actually thinks they make me look cute!!
I was a bit to sore to really want to get pashing for the first few days... but I'm pleased to say that over the weekend there has been plenty of kissing like usual!! It does feel a bit weird for me with all the stuff against my lips, but he doesn't seem to notice much of a difference at all.
Happy kissing!

bad timing, huh? Well... that's what makes life interesting, innit? The unpredictability! Hehe
Anyway, if he's the one your brace won't be an issue! Girls do look cute with braces (I wonder if girls find guys with braces cute or just creepy-looking!?).

Three months!
Hi Mona --
Good question, and I have no answer since I just got braces and am single.
But three months will go by so fast ... before you know it, you will be showing off your new smile, and that guy will dig your chili even more! I am sure you won't have any problems, but if you do, laughter is always a good remedy!
Danish, I think men who have braces are not creepy ... they are healthy people who take care of themselves. That in itself is attractive!
Good luck you all! Happy romancing!

I have IBraces (lingual) and my guy was very hesitant about kissing me for a few weeks--- which really upset me- because I assumed he wasn't kissing me because the braces looked ugly...
But he finally told me it was because he was terrified he'd break something!! Haha I have so much going on in my mouth, 4 extractions, a tooth uncovering, ibraces, crazy elastic configurations- so no wonder he thought he'd break something!!
