I was wondering, do braces hurt if you have crooked teeth and do they make you look crooked?

Few days every time: Some discomfort on teeth occur for a few days every time some movements start. Pressure on teeth cause inflammation. This is an intended inflammation, as that is how the bone is remodeled to accommodate teeth to move. When you have an inflammation in the bone, you feel that the braces are hurting the teeth. Your teeth move then, and will make you less ; less crooked, and your face better!

Braces "pain": Each time an adjustment is made you will feel some discomfort for just a few days, similar to having a mild headache in your mouth. Orthodontist can instruct you on pain relieving techniques, the most important of which is exemplary oral hygiene. As to whether braces make you look crooked, no. They make you look straight.
