The fact that there are only hooks makes it much less likely to cut your tongue, and the coverings really keep you safe from that sort of thing. It’s just when they’re too tight that it gets a little painful. When did you first get braces, and why did you need them? More than a year ago. And most kids need braces. For one, before this, I had to get a palette expander, because I was at risk of growing into an underbite. So that fixed that, but as a result, all of my teeth were too spread out from one another, and some were crooked (there even used to be a tooth on the bottom row that was way too crooked so it was almost perpendicular with the rest of my teeth), so I needed to get braces.

Literally, almost everyone has to get braces.
