How does the orthodontist fix me my braces?

In one week they are going to put me brackets above and below and i wanted to know everything what they are going to do to me since I feel in the armchair of the orthodontist.
Thank for your answers .
Answer:
You meant the process of applying braces? Well they usually put a device in your mouth that widens and holds on your lips and cheeks back. They take a cotton swab and make your brace tooth dry, they mix this edible, cement like substance. They rub someone your teeth and put the bracket on. They then use ultraviolet ray gun to superheat the cement and make it stay. Its a sour taste. It doesn't hurt when its being done. Then they add the wire and put an elastic over the wire which ties to the bracket, the wires hook into these metal encasing around your molars.Your moulds are a different story.
If I remember correctly, they make a mold of your teeth with a plaster like substance. Then they may put spacers between your teeth so they can put the brackets or band around the teeth on. Then they will put the front parts on. Both of these are done with a cement substance. Then they will thread the wire through, tighten it in the back and cut the ends off. It will be painful for a few days. Just remember, no gum, corn on the cob, etc. Good luck
