Bad breath can often be the first sign of a disease. But how do doctors define bad breath and what are the major causes of bad breath?...

is it suppose t hurt when they tighten your braces?
because it NEVER hurts ME.
and ive heard its suppose to hurt.
so im just wondering, is this normal?
or is it because i have a high pain tolerance?
and im seeing no differnece in my teeth.
are my dentists people doing this properly.
btw, ive only had my braces for a couple of months...

so maybe that has something to do with it?
