Question

Would braces make a metal detector go off?

Answer 1

They could. If they do, just smile at the guy really big. :D

Answer 2

haha i dunno. just smile as you go through

Answer 3

Do they....no. When I had them, I went to the airport various times and they never went off. I don't know why this is, but it never seemed to be an issue

Answer 4

nope. I had them for 4 years. At our school, everyone is required to go through metal detectors. braces will never set them off, so you have nothing to worry about

Answer 5

Braces shouldn't make a metal detector go off in an airport. are usually made from non metallic material these days. Its nothing to worry about. Just tell them before you go through that you have braces if you are worried.
