How do braces actually work and do i need them?

Q.

Hi there last week my regular dentist told me that I will need need braces and that she’s referring me to a orthodontist during my check up. But I just don’t understand how braces work, you like when they are actually overlapping or crooked. how do they push your teeth into a straight line? does it not hurt all the time? Is there any way of straightening teeth without braces as i have heard alot of horror stories about them?
