Do you think I need braces for my gaps? D: [Pic]?!


Question: Do you think I need braces for my gaps? D: [Pic]?
I'm 13 and I'd hate getting braces because I honestly love my teeth and take pride in them, I brush once to twice a day on weekdays, (Imthatlazyandskipweekends) if I don't brush gentel my gums will bleed, I still just suck it up [Not literally, that's gross lol] and brush anyway I also add more toothpaste to try and prevent that.
Now to my gapped out teeth, they've been hurting lately because I use my old sports (karate) mouthpiece from years ago to stop clenching my teeth, I think it spaces them out more but I'm to cheap for a mouthguard.
Should I just keep it and dgaf about the spaces or suffer braces. I REALLY hate braces, my friends traumatized me, "Oh it hurts, oh I can't eat this, oh I drool, oh my god my teeeeth!"

Hi Love,


You actually have the same overbite I do :3 Although... mine is a little bit less then that :D
I would suggest braces because an overbite tends to get worse :P Braces aren't really that bad.. Besides yours isn't the worst case I've seen. A year - to two years at the most. I can kinda promise that :) I'm 13 too >w< Eh-Heh. :) Don't skip weekends :P Trust me. Unless you want a deep-cleaning at an early age and um... that bleeds. I watched my dentist do my mum. :| That was no fun watching. He just picked and made it bleed... O__O over. and over again. * shudders *


:P I would get braces. THEN YOU CAN CONTINUE TO BE LAZY AND NOT BRUSH YOUR TEETH DURING THE WEEKENDS :D
