how can surgery fix your teeth!?! braces are the only way to move your teeth back into proper position!. trust me on this, i went to great lengths to look for other means of getting perfect teeth - invisalign, cosmetic dentistry etc!.

as for the teasing thing - don't worry about it!. it won't last for long!. :) it's definitely not too late - in fact thirteen's a great age to get your braces done because your jaws aren't that firm yet and your baby teeth are all out!. i only got mine this year, and i'm twenty one! =!.= you have no idea how much i wish i did my braces when i was younger!! all those years of ugly photos! poo! plus, the older you get, the less likely you are to have company wearing braces!. there's only one other girl in my year wearing braces!. :(

btw, if your teeth aren't that bad and you're really worried about the teasing thing, you can try looking for a dentist that does invisalign!. apparently it's more painful and takes a bit more time though!. o!.oWww@Answer-Health@Com

It's never too late to get braces!. I had braces on while I was in eighth grade for about two years and never had any problems with teasing!. Braces are so common these days that they are hardly noticeable!. I'm 21 now and I've had braces on for a few months because I'm getting jaw surgery to correct an overbite!. Surprisingly a lot of people my age and older have braces now!. With that said I would suggest you get braces now and get it out of the way!. You don't want to have to worry about braces and orthodontic checkups when you're in college or the workforce!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

its never too late to get braces!. I am 29 years old and have been having braces for about 6 months!. I waited so long because when I was younger, my parents could not afford braces for my twin sis and I!. Now that I am older, I can afford them!. I love them, if your parents are willing to get your braces and they can afford to, I would get them now if I were you!. Dont worry about what other people think, just think, your teeth will be beautiful when you are done with them!Www@Answer-Health@Com

its never too late to get braces!. I didn't get mine until 16!. We have allot of people that come into our office who are in their 40's and want braces!. don't worry about having them in high school lots of people do!.
If you can afford it ask your mom and dentist about veneers!. they are more expensive then braces!. All they do is put a thin piece of ceramic on the top surface of your teeth!. Its like a movie star smile!. they can make your teeth whiter and straight!. that's an alternative to braces!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
