@saticoypm they change the wires (in this past appt. then didn't) and they change the elastic, which are the colored bands that go around the brackets. It prevents the bracket from scraping your lips too much. Once that's finished, you will feel a little pressure, but not so much. The only time you will feel a lot of pressure is when you get a power chain put on. It's used to closed gaps and forces your teeth, using a lot power, together.
What exactly is done when they "tighten" your braces?
