Is it ever to late to get braces?
I'm and 17 years old, will be 18 on April 3rd, 08. I have needed braces for a long time, but my mom hasn't been able to get them for me because my parents are divorced and my dad has never paid child support. She is now starting to get her money situated and looking for dental insurance. Is there a certain age or anything that I won't be able to get them or if I do it won't correct my teeth?

no, there is no age, you just may need them on longer to do their job


junekyeong
NO!!!! But if you do it too late then that might be a problem. You have a chance of getting gum problems. But i am talking WAY WAY WAY old!

anytime you can get them put on..

i dont know
probley not fr guys
girls should get them earlier cuz they stop growing and their mouth stops moving
i think u could get them though

You can get them whenever you decide too. Depends which one you get tho they have clear ones, regular (metal), and invisiline which are in my opinion the best because you cant see them at all (just like a film over teeth) but take a little longer than usual. Im pretty sure you can also get the regular ones in the back of your teeth so they arent visible (friend of mine has them like that)


savvy
No probably not. My dad got his braces when he was 29ish. But then again that was about 25 years ago


jameslankford
No, it's never too late...in fact my cousin got braces at 42

My dad got braces when he was in his 40's or 50's. But I would recommend either doing the invisiline or doing the clear/porcelein braces. I'm pretty sure the clear braces cost the same as the metal/silver ones these days. I had the clear ones on my top teeth when I was in jr high and high school.

Anyway, the whole process isn't that cheap and it's not fun. But good luck. I say the sooner you can get them the better. I think it's tacky to see grown adults with silver metal braces on their teeth.

never too old and they have the clear ones now if it is appropriate for you ask you dentist

You can get them at any age, I know someone who's a lot older than you who has braces, so they should work.

No, as far as i know, many adults have braces. Ask your dentist.

No. Adults get braces these days and sometimes people who had braces as kids end up needing them again later in life. I had braces when I was 13-14 and I feel like I might need them again someday as I grind my teeth when I sleep.

Never too late, my aunt got them and she was about 40 years old. Her teeth look great. They have the invisible ones now that will make any adult feel comfortable with braces. It is never too late.

that stuff is sooo complicated. it all depends on the exact situation going on in your mouth. the most important thing you can do is brush and floss your teeth and you can ask your dentist about anything more then that.

i say the latest person i kno who got braces was 50 at the time...


Meggo_Waffle
for only a little bit more money, you could go for invisalign.
they're clear braces that solve the same problems as metal ones without you having to worry about looking like a metal mouth :)

nope correct your teeth now when you are young, otherwise you will be pissed when you are like 30 with braces!

no theres no age limit or anything....if u wait too long, u have to keep it on longer


Roxy
I dont think there's an age in particular, but dentists like to do it when your younger because your adult teeth are younger ( I think) =)


Eagiusti
it's never too late for braces. haven't you seen those people in their 30's that have them?

I'm also 17 years old and i have braces. i had them since February of last year (2007). my parents were also financially unable to get the braces for me until last year.
having them for a year, this is what i have learned:
1) my appearance has not been downgraded, in fact, i believe people look up to those who have/had braces.
2) they do hurt at times, but not all the time.
3) they are definitely worth getting. just think, perfect teeth.

so do not worry too much about getting braces.
