But my question is this: Is there a site that can show me what I will look like with braces? Like something that alters my picture to put braces on me to see if I really want to do this.
hi i had braces for 2 years till i was 18 and i thought it would b bad to have them at 18 but really u get use to them ppl dont really pay much attention and when i got them off so many people said how nice my teeth were and how straight they were so it really is worth it and the difference you feel after they come off u will then understand that is was worth it good luck x x x
Good thoughts above from JAYMELOU! Let's not forget that you can also get braces in a number of different styles now that may make a difference as to how you feel about wearing them.
Also, I don't know of a site where you could alter your image so that you look like you have braces on. But, I do know of at least one free image altering software where you could draw braces on yourself to see what you might look like.
Chihuahuamomma: I wore braces for 4.5 years (yes...they were growing through my nose, heehee). Now, at the age of 31, I am getting them again.
The biggest piece of advice for you (when you do get them)......wear your retainers afterwards, or get permanent ones put behind your teeth. Otherwise, you will be going through this whole thought process again later in life
rpg, you make an excellent point about retainer wear! It might sound like a pain, but once you've been in braces for a year or two, the retainer thing is no big deal. Some orthos use clear retainers (like Invisalign trays) which are great if you have to wear them during the day because no one can see them. After a period of time, you'll wear them only at night anyway, and then it's really no big deal!
Lots of adults have braces; there were two people in my college classes recently who were braced, and just the other day I saw an adult employee at a store with braces too. It's really not a big deal.
some tell me that I'm bizarre for this, but the FIRST thing I look at when I look at a girl are her teeth. I HAVE to like your teeth if anything's going to happen. seriously. if I don't like your teeth, keep movin.
here's the kicker...I like teeth so much that I can
1) tell when someone's had braces (not too hard)
2) tell when someone's wore their retainers or not (again...not too difficult)
3) tell when someone's had whitening done
4) tell when someone's had...really...any work done on their teeth.

That's kinda shallow....And those aren't hard things to tell....so thanks for making me feel better
no not chemistry. You know how a guy will approach a girl because he'll think she's pretty...because of her cleavage...her hair...whatever. mine's teeth. I approach girls because I like her teeth.
