thats what i have heard

Not really for me. They both hurt but the top one hurt more.

I think it just depends on your teeth, if your bottom teeth has more problems then it will hurt moree cause bracfes are trying to fix them right? i had braces for four years..and both the top and the bottom are about the same. They both hurt at times and are annoying but..you get used to them. Then they're off before you know it and your gorgeous. Mine dont. For me, it's the top ones that hurt more. you use the top of your mouth more when you bite into things. but if you dont eat carrots or apples, or anything thats hard to bite into, It'll be fine. not really i think they both hurt about the same you get sores on both no matter what. Nope. I get more food stuck in the bottom row, but the top row hurts more when they get tightened or if I bite down too hard on the wrong thing. well it totally depends on which ones you get tightened more. on some days when i get both top and bottom tightened, my bottom would hurt more because i guess it's more pressure against all those little teeth. good luck with braces!!!!!
