Okay i went to the orthadontist and they said i have to firstly wear a plate in my teeth for 4 months to fix my "overbite" and get my teeth straighter, i will get my plate in on the 22nd June. Then after i am going to have braces (train tracks) for about 15 months. The orthadontist said i should be done before im 18 which is good.

But some questions, what are plates?? are they comfortable?
Is it Painful? Does it make you talk funny?

Also, what foods can i eat? because i absoloutley love my food so i will be pissed off if i cant eat some stuff.
TRhe orthadontist said i cant take the plates off, but thats stupid, what if im eating or if im brushing my teeth?

I also need to have 2 of my teeth removed before my plate goes in, to make room for it.
Im really not looking forward to these few months. It sounds horrific, i start college in September and i dont want to look like a loser who cant speak properly and is depressed
