Help with braces?!?!


Question:

Help with braces?!?

Okay... I'm in middle school and most people my age at my old school that were gonna get braces had already had them, but not me. I have to loose my molars, but I'm not sure I will, because my brother, who has had his braces, retainer, and his wisdom teeth pulled has never lost a molar. I want to only get braces on my front teeth, cause I think that even if I do loose my molars that my front teeth will only need to have braces. How do I convince my parents?

Also, my friend had braces, and our school colors are green and yellow, she got them, and they look horrible, but I will go to a dif. ortha than her, so is it worth getting yellow and green?

Also, what colors can you get, and how many can you get at a time?


Answers:

I would recommend asking your parents what the dentist has said about your teeth and whether you need braces or not. If they ask why tell them that you are concerned about possible problems with your front teeth (an overbite is a big reason for why someone needs to wear braces, I wore them for a year and a half).

Then when you do go to the orthodontist and you get the spacers to see how to make the braces fit they may ask about colors you want. As for yellow and green I agree that depending on the kind of green it is when it comes to shade would look terrible.

If I had to go for braces again I would wear pink, purple, and blue, or something like that.

If you have more questions for me about my experiences with braces please feel free to e-mail or IM me privately any time.
