Yes, I think they definitely are. I'm happy to have straight teeth now and I definitely don't regret having braces. I hope this helps!

I wouldn't think so, unless your teeth are, like, terrible. I have a 3mm overbite and a rotated tooth, but they said I didn't need braces because my rotated tooth was fixing itself, and the overbite isn't really that much of a problem. It's really kinda up to you, I'd think, but I wouldn't wanna go through all that pain just so my smile could be perfect. Sometimes the beauty is in the flaws. ^_^

Yes they are. Pain only lasts about 2 days after you get them on and you eat soft foods, but its worth it. The only other time it hurts is when the get it tightened but thats not that bad either. I cant wait to see my straight teeth when I get mine off in the spring. Its totally worth it!! Hope I helped!!

Karen answered Wednesday August 25 2004, 11:47 am:
Yep, braces are definitely worth it. Once you get your braces, its only gonna hurt for the first few appointments because your orthodontist tightens the wires and your teeth move and causes a little bit of pain. I only had my braces on for a year and a half and now I juts have to wear my retainer to bed until January of 2005. Hope I helped and if you have any other questions regarding to braces, feel free to drop them in my inbox and I'll be glad to answer them :)

if you're teeth are very VERY messed up then yes totaly... they hurt alot... i have braces, i've had them for 2 years and it's going to be 3 in september. having nice teeth is something that is going to boost your self esteem and you'll (of course) smile more!! and alot of people are attracted to a nice smile... my mom told me that having a nice smile and nice teeth gets you better jobs because my mom has a great job because of her great smile! so suck it up... get the braces and when they are off... SMILE! hope i helped!!
