Tipp’s for braces

Does a brace hurt?

They can cause jaw pains and headache. Here can you read what helps against it:

If you have new braces or it were tightened your jaw can hurt a few days, but I haven’t. Lots of teens say that chewing hurts. What to do?

It would be the best, if you switch to soft, liquid or pulpy food, e.g. mashed potatoes, yogurt or soup. A cooling pack is reassuring too. You can also ask your doctor about painkillers.

Make up

Here are the most important rules: Always emphasize your eyes more than your mouth. It means: Wear bright eye shadow instead of bright lipstick. Cause color is always flashy. And you surely want that boys look into your eyes instead of your mouth, right? Too much lip-gloss can be confusing too. Then it glitters in and on your mouth and that looks strange. You can’t without it? Then you have to pay attention that your lip-gloss doesn’t shine too much. Last tip: Let your hair open, no matter if it’s straight or curly. That borders your face and diverts of the silver brace in the middle.

Care tipps

Nothing replaces brushing your teeth, but a few extras makes your braces life better

Last but not least: Different kinds of braces

Tasteful braces. It’s a mistake to think that boys mean that braces are unsexy. A lot of guys find the discreet braces cool.
