Yeah, even tho your teeth aren't crooked, braces are the only thing to fix an overbite. But as long as it's just for the overbite, you really shouldn't have to wear them too long. Just be happy, you're lucky, I have crooked teeth and an open bite! It bites! (no pun intended.) but yea..I'd talk with your parents about it. 8th grade is the perfect time to get braces, you can hopefully get them out before high school. I'm getting mine in right before high school...ick. Anyways, hope this helped. If you need anything else just email me, ok? Good luck. ^_^
