Brandyleigh35, I am so glad you said that about kissing being a little uncomfortable. With the exception of the first week after I had the braces put on and the week after I shredded my lower lip taking a basketball in the mouth, there hasn't been any real pain associated with kissing, but anytime there is any pressure put against my brackets/wire its rather uncomfortable and it has taken a lot of the enjoyment out of "passionate" kissing.
I get my upper braces on Thursday. I hope it doesn't get worse when I am "fully braced". My wife is an AMAZING kisser and its a shame to miss any of her kisses.

DentaKit covers did it for me.
So, I tried a couple of things, including "going slow" and being careful, and that didn't work.
Having the covers on made a huge difference. The covers are actually softer than my teeth, so having them over the brackets means that .... well, everything is just fine.

concerned about molar bands
The model teeth at the ortho had these hook things on the inside of the molar bands. Yikes. When I looked at them that was the first thing I thought about.
I figured I could do the comfort covers for the front and i would be covered but now must think about those hooks on the inside.
I told the boyfriend about them and he laughed.

kissing
We don't seem to have trouble. I have braces and an expander. I do everything to my husband that I always have I just do it slower... Which can be a good thing.
