Hey betharoo... I think I saw you on another message board once... I'm also 15 and got braces when I was 14, 6 months ago. It's really not too bad. I found that there wasn't that much pain compared to the amount that I thought I'd have. Even when my mouth is "sore" it's not a "hit in the mouth with a baseball" feeling that some describe, but rather a dull, bruiselike ache. The worst part about braces for me is how it looks, which isn't that bad because lots of teens have braces these days. Well, welcome to this forum and good luck!

The only advice I can give is to try not to think about it. It's sort of like waiting for Christmas (or other favorite holiday/event). When you're distracted the time seems to go by faster.

Or you could sleep for 10 days! :lol:
