not as embarassing as wonky teeth when youre older
no... you can get them with diamonds on etc.. they are cute.. and nearly all girls have them.... dont worry....
Not anymore, everybody has them,their the new cool
no i am looking for a pair to hold my trousers up
Having your trousers fall down is much more embarrassing.
urm....well, im 16 and i have braces... so i think no...
They are there to fix your teeth, so let them.
People can say things but they dont know the pain! If they do, they are just immature!

But the answer to your question is No..Because im not embarresed...i just dont like the pain!
nah...i don't think it'll be embracing. my friend's sis were's it and shes 18 yrs old.
Braces became quite popular because of a cartoon called "Braceface".
Even if you are embarrased. Wait until they get removed. Your teeth will be in far better shape than those that didn't wear braces.
Nah. They are the height of dental fashion.
no they hold my trousers up ok
im 24 and i wish i have kept mine in, i refused to wear them but i would do anything to get them now, except they cost heaps! if i got them now it would cost me £3,000... go for it and dont worry about it one bit!
hell no. my sister (15 yrs. old) has braces and tons of guys go for her. plus, i thinki bad teeth are way worse than braces. at least youre doing something about it, and you'll be thankful later on that you had them :D
No there trendy and much better than wonky teeth when u get older!
I had them put on the backs of my teeth so they could not be seen but it would depend on what needs to be done to your teeth.I agree that it's still better than having dodgy teeth.You would regret that later on and prob ask yourself why you thought it was such a big deal.
i wish i had braces and im 22. its nice to have straight teeth
i had mine removed only a year ago, when i was 20!
but i found men weren't even bothered by them at all. i think they can look cute
yes they are.im 16 and i have them and i dont like wearing them although it will be worth it when i have perfect teeth.
NO WAY!! they are soooooooooo much fun!
No
no they aint. i wish i cud av ad that oppertunity to av my teeth straightened.go gurllllllllllll
no i had them just think after you will have lovely teeth
nah, theyre fine, don't worry. you'll be thankful when you have perfect teeth later.
I'm 15 and I have braces! Sometimes I get a bit self-concious about them, and I think that guys won't like me coz I wear braces but my boyfriend says he doesnt even notice them any more, and that he really didn't care even when he first met me!

I think we feel that they are more noticable than they actually are, but don't worry! No-one will think 'Ooo what a loser, she has braces!' coz first of all, they're not very noticible coz loads of teenagers and adults have them, and also, most people will have had them before, when they were younger, if they're lucky enough to have got rid of them at 16!

so really, i don't think it should be embarassing! Just think that soon, you'll have lovely straight teeth, which will be worth it! x
some people don't like them, but i do! even though i'm 12. i will actually be kinda sorry to get mine off!
even if i had them at 16, i would still like them!
Even if they are, youll be glad you got them... I never had the option of getting them when i was younger and now I am 19 and my teeth embarrass me. Not only that but when your teeth are crooked, and too crowded it can cause food to get stuck between your teeth and if you cant get it out, you develop cavities. Trust me, youll be glad you got them!
NO! I had braces most of the time while I was young and I thought they were sexy..not to conceded. I want you to know I hope you go into this with positivity the whole way. You don't have to wear them forever and will have a beautiful smile. I went through a lot with my teeth. They had me wear little rubber bands attatched from the top to the bottom on both sides for a while but, they had pretty colors and they also doubled for braiding my friends hair you can get a pack anytime you need them from the dentist. Good Luck on what ever you decide.
