I've decided that, after four-or-so months of my boyfriend "going down on me", I'd like to return the pleasure. However, I have a full set of braces, and I'm worried about hurting him or causing him discomfort. One of my friends told me I should use my lips to cover my teeth, but is there anything else I can do? I don't trust myself to be coordinated enough to _keep_ my lips over my teeth. Also, if he has been monogamous, and has not shown any symptoms of STDs, should I request that he get tested first? (I get quite a few minor cuts from my braces.) If he is my first boyfriend (and the only person I've had sexual relations with) should I get myself tested? It's kind of late to have any point besides being fair...

Oral with braces - any ideas?
I don't think it will be a good idea for you to give oral to your b/f while you have those braces
. Maybe using a condom ...
Also, you can get any STD by oral sex, and he may have something without showing any symptoms. If both of you plan to keep an active sex life together, it will be a good idea that both of you get tested, just to be sure.
I can understand Tjdude's hesitation re oral sex with braces, but I wouldn't go so far as to say "don't do it".
Be careful to cover your teeth with your lips (as your friend told you) to avoid snagging his skin. If you still feel nervous, use your tongue to lick, rather than your mouth to suck. He will likely take longer to come this way (less total friction), so if he goes on too long, combine licking with hand movements and perhaps some careful sucking. This can make for exquisite fellatio!
The other advantage of this approach is that if he comes unexpectedly, you are less likely to get a surprise mouthful. You can still taste/swallow his cum if you want, or not, as you prefer. However, you have greater control over the option, which is especially nice if this is your first time and you are unsure whether you will like the taste or not. That aspect also makes this a good option for anyone who likes to give oral, but doesn't want to perhaps swallow or spit the results.
As Tjdude says, unless you are both absolutely sure the other has had no previous sexual experience, then you should both get tested. It is only being fair to each other.
Btw - it is never "too late" to be tested; if you/he are in the clear you will both know (and if not, you/he may require treatment). Either way it is worth it. Remember, some STD's are incurable. Some can be deadly! Why take the risk?
yea i can imagine if i was a guy i would be hesitant of a girl w/ braces...sorry. my only tip is maybe to get some of that dental wax they give you for braces ( i had them years ago) and use it to cover your braces at least towards the front... and watch out b/c i know w/ mine i had rough metal spots on the very back teeth on the inside by my tongue, but yours may be different. but like ital said.... at first just lube him up and give him a good handjob w/ some careful licks on the tip.
hope this helps
Just an update. Yesterday I went down on my boyfriend for the first time. Quite an experience. ^_^ It'll take some getting used to, but I like it. It seems that there's not much of a problem when I just suck on the head - it's more the molar braces that snag. However, if I'm careful, it seems, the pleasure outweighs any pain (ie. for him). He actually wanted me to take him all the way in, but that was a little hard. All I can say is... A lot of room is a good thing. And 69 helps too. ^_^;
this may seem more funny then serious, though it could work...
putting a lower and upper mouth guard over your teeth, and take getting cuts out of the picture... It isn't the most attractive thought, but could work for a little test run :P
I had braces, for like 3 years? and when i gave head to my bf of that time... i was hella good. you just need to realise they are part of your mouth. i find it harder to give head now with them off, lol i found it easier with braces... it was just... part of me..(my mouth), you just get used to it, and the more careful you are the more you focus, the more they love ;)
NieA,
The first Bj I gave, I had braces . . . and my BF said it was never bad . . . just a few times I slipped. But he sed that it felt too good to ruin the moment. My main suggestion to you is to try your hardet to keep your lips over your teeth AND the best way to do it with out hurting him is to take only the head of his member into your mouth, Lube up your hand(s) with lotion or KY jelly and use your hands as an extension to you mouth, moving them together. Sucking feels good, but is quite hard to do w/braces.
Since you're still getting cuts, my guess is you havent had your braces very long . . it will definitely help once you're more used to them.
As for asking your BF to get tested, You have the right to be safe and protect your own body and he should respect you, but if you know for a fact that he's been only with you then i wouldt worry about it.
And Remember . . . Practice makes perfect, so if all else fails . . . Practice!
Hope it helps
