I despise my teeth, help me?!


Question: I despise my teeth, help me?
I'm 14. I've been waiting to get treatment done on my teeth for about two years, but my jaw might not be fully grown yet so the orthodontist said she'd like to wait 'til this October. I know that I'm waiting for a good reason, but I hate my teeth so much. My jaws really small so they're extremely crooked. There's even teeth that came out of the gum because there was no room for them. I never look at my teeth in the mirror, I try to keep my mouth closed at all times and I have to cover my mouth when I laugh because I hate them that much. No-one says anything about them but I know they do behind my back. I'd love to be able to smile with my teeth, or comfortably laugh, or be confident enough to open my mouth. What can I do 'til I get braces? Is there anyway to make them look somewhat better?

Well it's good that Your going to the ortho their the only people who can fix it!! And the wait will be worth it :) and tell your friends and stuff that you gonna get them fixed just be like I can't wait til I get my braces and my teeth look better they'll get the idea.. Because there's really no way to fix them your self but take care of them! Brush them everyday and you could whiten them because them people will notice how white they are before they notice their crooked ! :) Good Luck

I know it is easy for someone else to say but you just need to be patient. Practice smiling with your mouth closed so that you find a smile you are happy with. Maybe try some lipstick to see if that makes you feel more confident. Ask your mum to help, or go to the beauty counters in Boots and ask them which colour would suit you. Don't worry, things will get better.

Just smile when you're feeling happy, it doesn't matter if you think people think your teeth are funny. As long as your happy...or move to England, we all have bad teeth here!

wait till your older, if u get braces niow, you may have to get them again as you grow.
