Tikka	at first, because you have to get used to talking with metal in your mouth, but then you'll get used to it and you'll be talking normal in no time Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

all_that_jazz5337	nope. My sister just got them, she talks the same. But if you're in band, or you play an instrument with your mouth, you might have to adjust to play it correctly. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

K-Rizzle	I think mine have changed the way I talk a little bit. I can't wait to get them off. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Amber	No not really - maybe for the first day or two while you get used to them but then they don't make a difference at all. HOWEVER, the retainer you'll get after the braces come off takes a lot longer to get used to and it does affect the way you talk a bit. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

YaYa	what's P&S? I dont' know. Any way, i don't think that braces do, I have had mine for five years so I don't remember what I sound like without them except my spanish teacher thinks that I can't pronounce words like I sould so that's that. Don't get stressed out about it unless your a pro..singer and it doesn't change it so much that everyone can tell and it's doesn't sound like the kids on tv that are over acted and sound really weird.

On Top Of Ol' Smokey	Yes, they seem to get in your way when you talk, but you'll quickly get over that naturally. It's nothing to be concerned about. You will need to brush your teeth a lot better because the food likes to hide behind the wires. Your doctor will tell you how to brush better while you have braces. You'll have alot better of a smile when they come off. By the way, your mouth will feel like there is alot of room in it after the braces are off, but you'll get over that feeling in no time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
