I am not sure i follow as far as fake braces? You may have ment to say does it hurt to get braces on? The process to braces on is not painful. The most uncomfortable part is the mouth or lip retractor placed in your cheeks to hold your mouth open during the procedure. It does not hurt but it is in there for about 1 hr. This allows everything to stay dry while they put the braces on. They will clean your teeth with a special cleaner or etch then rinse off the tooth with water. They then place a little brush with primer on your tooth that does not hurt at all.Then again they will dry the tooth with air. The orthodontist then places the little brackets on your teeth and you wont probably even feel when they are doing so. They use a special light that is not hot that drys the bracket cement onto the tooth.  they will then put a wire that connects everything. If you explain to the orthodontist you are afraid they can even explain each step to you as you go. Things also seem worst if you dont know whats going on. The end result will be worth it. You may want to ask your parents to give you tylenol or motrin before going in so after the braces are on it will not be as sore when you get home.
