Anybody have crooked teeth? anybody have braces?
I didn't get braces until late in high school. They came off before college although I new some who even had they on then. I don't think it really matters when you have them. If you are unhappy with your teeth, get braces. But watch out because they can be expensive.

Reply:do you plan to gett braces?





if you do but you just don't know when and you think its taking too long its probably because your teeth took longer to develop thats what happened to me...i was late losing them so they sped up the processes and pulled 10 of my teeth





so i have braces right now and ill be getting them off in about 5 months
Reply:I have straight teeth. But that's what 3 years of braces does. Before that, my teeth were pretty bad.

Reply:I had braces for one year when I was about 13. I went pretty fast and they were perfectly straight. Unfortunately, my orthodontist, for some unknown reason, decided that my wisdom teeth would have enough space to grow. Of course, they didn't, so now they aren't really straight anymore, and the front two at the bottom are a bit crooked (it's also my fault, I admit: I waited too late to have them removed!). I'm planning on getting braces, not because it's not aesthetic, but because it's not easy to brush.





I'm 27, nearly 28, and I don't care if people think braces are ugly or not! I'll still get them.
Reply:I had braces and so did everyone I knew who needed them. I had the clear plastic ones.





My niece didn't want them before she got them, but was forced by her parents. She is soo glad she had them. Now that she has perfect teeth.





There are a ton of choices now for straightening your teeth. You can go to a discount clinic and get metal braces. The metal ones work just fine. Or you can get plastic or invisible ones. There are even braces that are put on behind the teeth that don't show.





Whatever type you get, the result is worth it. People judge you by your teeth. They shouldn't but they do.





Straight teeth equals better health, more dates and better job opportunities.





Talk to your parents and tell them you want braces. If money is a problem, you can offer to get a summer job to help pay for it.
