I was pretty terrified to get my braces on, but all of the doctors were really chill about everything and helpful in saying what I had to do and explaining what they were doing. They gave me a lunch with soft foods and that was a life saver during school as my regular sandwich required too much chewing to be comfortable. The booklet they gave was also helpful in giving tips as to how you should go about your first couple of days with braces. I play the violin and it was helpful to know that I needed to do some adjustments to how I play to be as comfortable as possible.
