Should i get braces at 26??
Question: I've been unhappy with my teeth for a while. But i'm so nervous, even just thinking about. Not really about the pain but more about what other people will think. I also feel like it would bring unwanted attention to crooked teeth (well crooked at the beginning)
Answers: go ahead girl and brace your teeth, i am 30 and i just got braces 3 months ago, i never look hotter.
I am 24 and I am getting braces at the end of the month. Who cares what people think? This is all about improving your smile. Go ahead and get braces. You might regret it one day in the future if you choose not to do it.
Go for it. I had braces at the age of 9 and it didn't hurt at all. I know ur not concerned about the pain, but I'm sure it might help a little. Who cares what other people think-------when ur teeth are better just think about how good they will look. And really I'm sure most people wouldn't even think anything of it. I don't when I see people. You say u don't want ur teeth to stand out, well if anything the braces would hide most of the damage. Plus, they would only get better after they were on. Good luck and go ahead and get it over with!
There are many much older than you who have done it. Our family orthodontist uses Invisalign a lot with much success. It's worth looking into because you can barely tell you're wearing anything. A better alternative for the metal braces.
I was unhappy with my teeth and decided to get braces when I was 49. My braces are now off and I am so happy I decided to take care of my teeth. Other people really won't think anything about your braces. Adult orthodontics is very common these days. Yes, there is some pain and discomfort but the end result is amazing. Schedule a consultation with an orthodontist. You'll be so glad you did.
If your teeth have been bothering you why not do it now and enjoy the benefits for a long time?
Braces are much smaller these days and you can ask about getting clear anchors. Plus, it is more common to see adults w/ braces because they need to fix their bite or the crookedness of their teeth is causing other problems. Cosmetic dentistry is more common too and kind of a status thing. (teeth whitening, veneers, etc.)
What you think is most important as you have to live with your teeth. Most people won't care & anyone else who has the time to criticize you needs to get their own life. Do what you think is best and feel free to take care of yourself.
yes i have braces and they hurt but only a week after they mess with them and whats a little pain compaired to nice looking teeth go to apple they specialize in braces for people all ages, dont worry the way u look many people have them, u r lucky i litary have to get sugery to align my over bite
Heck yeah!!!!! Go for it. I am 33 and I have them and the reactions has not been what I expected (all in a good way).
BTW-- I have clear tops and metal bottoms
Good Luck !!
OK......don't worry about what other people think. It doesn't matter AT ALL about what they think. Its about what you think.
*Its so worth it though, your teeth well be uncrooked*
Sure, why not? I got mine at 28 and I was pregnant, that was a sight. But I did not care, my teeth needed to be straightened and it was the time to do it because I had some other issues (overcrowding and loosing teeth was one of them). My sister-in-law had braces in her 40's and was certainly not embarrassed by it. Go ahead, don't worry about what other people will think, if it makes you happy, go for it.
what about the white braces? It may be uncomfortable fora couple of years, but just think about how wonderful you will feel about your mouth when you get them off! OR, you could get veneers or crowns on all of your teeth, something called a smile makeover. Veneers are painless, crowns can be painful to an extent, and both are much more expensive than orthodontia.
I think it will definitely be worth it in the end. Don't worry about what people think now, believe me. I had braces for 2 years (over 10 years ago) and still people are constantly complementing me on my teeth. Really! Go for it.
Yeah get them! I am 22 and getting them. We didnt have dental insurance when we were little. I have always hated my teeth i make sure no one sees them now i am getting them fixed i had pre retainers so i only have to wear my braces for a year!
Good Luck to your future of straight bright smiles!
If you need braces you should get them. It will be worth it when it is over. It might not look that bad. It doesn't hurt anyway though, accept the first couple of days when you have to get used to them. But you don't have to listen to what other people think.
don't worry about what they think now, in the long run you will have beautiful straight teeth the short term shouldn't matter only the long term. I would do it. Not everyone is born with perfect teeth,go for it!!!
