I've been there before. Only i've had to have 8 teeth removed over the years. Most of which were for braces. It'll be worth it in the end mate.

I was told I needed braces when I was younger, I said no. I now have slightly wonky teeth but not that bad They kinda straightened themselves out as I have got older.
I do kinda wish that I had had braces.

really they shouldn't have numbed both sides of your mouth up as you could have bite your cheeks to bits etc as well as not being able to eat but at least it's practice for when you get your braces on you will only be able to eat really soft foods for about 5 days till you get used to the braces

lol try eat somethingm but after you've eaten rinse with warm salt water or just water if possible so you don't get an infection in the socket! And don't smoke (not sure wether you do or not )
i have braces upper and lower, it's not too bad now but really hurt when i had them put on just can't wait to get them off now

four teeth are they all at the same side? once your numb you can't feel anything and the injections only just for a second! Tell you mate to take 2 paracetamol's and 2 ibproufen (sp) as soon as he gets home so he wont feel as much pain once the numbness weres off!

Unlucky Matt 
I had 12 baby teeth out when I was 12 because the new ones werent coming through and I should've lost ALL baby teeth by then 
I had braces too which I never wore and I still ended up with straight teeth, they were a waste of time.

those braces are removable ones , they don't straighten your teeth they just help push your bottom jaw out so your anteriors bite together then if you had of worn that brace the orthodontist would have put fixed braces in which straighten your teeth

woohoo did you rinse with salt water/mouthwash coz if you get an infection it will be 10 times more painful than having a tooth out with no anesthetic
