do you/have u had braces?

[Ant$]

I've had braces. Had to have 4 teeth out a few month before having braces. Dentist got 3 teeth out and then snapped the 4th which meant he couldn't get to the remaining half in my gum. Had to go hospital, they had to dig into my gum and get it out. Had braces for over a year and they were very helpful and pain free. The only slight pain/ache i felt was when they got tightened. If anyone is advised to get braces I strongly advise you get them as they are very beneficial and will help you long-term.

I don't have any but I think I need them. You can get braces even when you're older can't you?

What do you mean surgery? If you have braces you don't have surgery unless you are having teeth removed for braces. When you have braces they just put some glue on your teeth and stick the metal on them and tighten it all up. Unless there is a type of brace that does require surgery!



4 years? I feel so sorry for you, but I guess they are doing good?

I know. It's horrible. My teeth weren't even that bad. All it was is the fact that I had too many teeth on the top and two of them overlapped one another so I had to have surgery to get them removed and It's taken longer than what they thought for them to fall back in place. So much fun that was... i had to be under anesthetic but when they woke me up i punched the nurse in the face apparently, think I was still dreaming not really sure lol.

Braces for under 18 are free
Over 18's would have to pay.

Not entirely sure. Mine were free when i was at the age of 16.

The only bad thing is they are extremly expensive, sure a smile is one of the best things you can have. But jesus christ imagine what you could do with the money you'd spend on them.

Yeah, you're spot on.

Alot of people have brilliant teeth but alot of people also have a few errors with them. I got told if i didn't wear braces I would get gum disease in the future.

I was born with beautiful teeth therefore didn't need them

I haven't had braces, I think my teeth are good and I've never been told I need them but maybe one day I'll regret it because I guess they can only help.

Haven't had braces + don't need them. Although, when I was 14 I did go to hospital to have 4 or 5 teeth taken out because I had too many teeth and they were "crowding" my mouth lol. Kinda glad I had a 1 hour operation instead of years of braces.

I had braces for a year and half. Got them removed 2 years ago.
