Answers:
Not everyone loses all their baby teeth before their braces are put on, but most people don't have many baby teeth left when they are finally put on!. Sometimes baby teeth are pulled too!.
The best thing to do would be to ask your orthodontist when he or she thinks you will finally be ready for braces!. They are probably waiting for a combination of things including your arch to fully develop (expand), teeth to come out, teeth to come in, etc!.!.!.
Everyone loses their teeth at different ages!. I was a junior or senior in high school when I finally lost my last tooth (it was one of my molars) and I didn't get braces until I was 25!. We all develop at different stages and at different speeds!. Try and be patient!.!.!. and you will get them on before you know it!Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I got my braces on July 18, 2006 and i was lucky i already lost all my baby teeth and they had all grown in!. My friend got hers on a week later and she is still losing baby teeth and waiting for more to grow in, I am getting my braces off tomorrow and part of the reason i got them off so fast is the orthodontist didn't have to wait for my teeth to grow in they were already their!. So in a way it is better to wait till u lose all your teeth, but your orthodontist will no everything about your teethWww@Answer-Health@Com
It sounds like you might get them when you are 14 maybe later, but braces come off within 1-1 1/2 years depending on your teeth!.
Ya, have braces right now and I've had them for about a year!. The top ones are ok, they don't hurt, but the bottom ones suck, especially cuz i have a crazy tooth (my canine on the bottom sticks out) Don't look forward to them! You can't have popcorn, a lot of soda(Coke=NEVER), or sticky foods and much, much more!. It sucks!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
