I want braces. i see everyone with them and i really want them. i think i need them. parents dont?

Question

haha i know its stupid but whatever. theyre really cool

i have a gap that i want gone but my mom says that it will get fixed once i get my wisdom teeth. [btw im only 15]

i also have a little overbite that is really ugly but my parents dont think its that bad soo they never say anything to my dentist. any ideas that would help me convince y parents into realizing that i actually might need braces? i know how painful they are and blah blah blah so dont answer this if your not gonna help. thanks =]

Answer 1

maybe you should go see a ortho instead of a regular dentist to get a quote first and also see what he or she says about them.

i had braces when i got my wisdom teeth pulled, they're not painful or anything, it's just a matter of getting used to them..... i got braces when i was 15 actually. but that was because the ortho said i don't need them, but if it's for a cosmetic reason, then i can get them, but really i didn't need them..........

Answer 2

15 is late to get braces so tell them that you will be the only freshamn in college with braces on. If you have a gap and all your teeth have come in now is the right time for braces.

Answer 3

the dentist will tell you if u need them...and btw..u will like them until about 12 seconds after getting them..trust me!!!!!!
