No pain: Removing braces is easy with virtually zero pain. After the clean up of adhesive is more lengthy and can be irritating, but no pain.

No pain at all: Removal of braces is quick and easy, depending upon your oral hygiene. The brackets are quickly removed using a special plier. The glue is carefully polished off of the teeth. My team routinely removes a set of braces is about 20 minutes. If your oral hygiene is marginal, you will have more "red stuff" to look at and glue removal can be a little tougher.
