^ lol that will rarely ever happen.. Its just kind of an urban legend, you would really have to be hitting your teeth together hard to get them tangled. BTW I had braces for like 3 years, dated a couple girls and they didn't ever seem to mind. BUT make sure you keep your teeth clean! I guarantee you that if you get all that food gunk caught up in your braces.. It won't be good for you. So just brush em 2 or 3 times a day and rinse with water after eating anything.
