regular is the best way to go.
they really arent that bad, and invisalign is really unreliable because you can take it out so much.
really it depends on how much your willing to invest in it financially as well as how much time your willing to put into it.

One thing I can tell you is that all of them will be a little on the expensive side, but in the end its worth it.

clear

yes and they should be pink and black

u should get invasalign
but its best 2 use once ur wisdom teeth have erupted already

Well when you are in like school, not college, braces are okay, but in college you better stick with invisalign..

I had braces for two and a half years, they could be a pain sometimes but in the end they are worth it!
I love my teeth now!
sometimes though braces are not the answer, see an orthodontist you might just need a quick fix like a retainer or headgear.

Hope I helped!

if you have a gap in your teeth or if you have creek it teeth.

Yes! get braces, i had them and it was the best thing my parent's did for me.

Ok, you should get regular braces. Thats the best kind. The other ones will hide it but it hurts alot more and doesnt work as good. The regular really arent all that bad! They are when you first get the, on. But give it a week or so and youll be good as new! Hope this helps and good luck with your braces!

You should get clear.

Hi!
Ok so I'm a college freshman and I still have braces. I have the clear ones and I hope that I can get them off soon. I would def recommend getting them though becuase it will be so worth it in the end. They get annoying at times becuase most people really dont have braces in college but most people really dont care. I dont know too much about prices but do not get the regular metal ones becuase theyre so obvious. A lot of people think mine are just a retainer. Hope this helps!

It's a big step, deciding you want to fix your teeth. First, go see an orthodontist. That's step 1. Because you don't even know if you're eligible for Invisalign. I'm doing Invisalign now and it's not bad at all. You really get used to it. And don't listen to the others. Invisalign doesn't hurt more than regular braces. It hurts less. And it's quicker. By a lot. But, Invisalign can only fix certain problems. So, if you have really big gaps in your teeth, braces work better for that. But, if it's just crowding, Invisalign works well.

I'm 7 weeks in of a 7 month treatment plan. And I'm starting to notice little changes in my teeth. Supposedly, half way through you should really notice things. The other good thing about Invisalign is you can take them out if you really have to. You take them out to eat and brush so if you're out to dinner with people, you can remove them and no one's the wiser. The bad part is the cost. They are more expensive than regular braces.

Talk to an orthodontist because not everyone is able to use invisalign and I hear clear braces sometimes stain.
