Braces makes gap between your teeths?

Im thinking about getting braces (im 15) and from what I heard from the orthodontist, he will be slicing my teeth to make space for the braces to work. So does slicing hurt, if anyone has tried it before AND will it leave a gap in the future when i take it off?

Answer:
Ive had braces for 22 months! I remember that.lol I had a Madonna gap. Yes it kinda hurts but they do it for space. Your younger so it should be quick. Mine took 6 weeks. As soon as they pull them back they are pretty though. My teeth got pretty after 7 months so I didn't even care that I had braces by then.Its worth it. No more gaps after that.
You probably have minor crowding and he doesn't want to pull any teeth so he's making space that way. All the gaps will probably and should close up like nothing happened when you get your braces taken off.
