What is the exact process of getting braces, tips on how to clean and what to eat? Also just tips for braces?

I've had braces for about two years now. (: They're not that bad. A lot of people say they are. Brush your teeth really good before you go to the orthodontist, you don't want spots on your teeth when you get them off. Continue to brush them very well everyday. Brush normally and then brush between the brackets and all around. If you have spacers they'll take them out and put on bands in the back, those are rings on your molars to keep the wire in place. They have little hooks on the inside of the band. They'll bother your tongue a bit but you'll get used to it. Then they'll glue brackets on to each and every tooth besides the ones behind your molar. Then they'll put on a wire ask you what color rubber bands you want. (: Every time you go there you'll be able to change the colors, which I think is neat. I've gone through all the colors. Haha. Stay away from caramel, it sticks to your teeth really bad. I remember I forget about it and ate a caramel apple and the caramel got stuck in my teeth and I sat in front of the mirror for about two hours trying to get it all out. Hahah, it was horrible. Braces are not all that bad. (: Just remember you're doing this to have nice pretty teeth and time will go by so fast. Goodluck!
