braces
I'm 16 and still have several baby teeth. I haven't pulled one out in probably three or so years, and none of them back been remotely loose thus far.
My top row of teeth are badly aligned with my bottom row, and I have a gap inbetween :(
I know I need braces and I've been wanting them for quite a while, and ultimately, my question is...
Do I need to pull all my baby teeth out before getting braces ? :|

Before i got my braces on, i had to go to a dentist and get 10 teeth pulled so they could put my braces on. This may be the case with you, but before you pull them, go to an orthodontist and see what he has to say about putting braces on you and what you need to do with your baby teeth. Hope this helps!

If you get braces before all of your baby teeth fall out, when your new teeth come in, everything will shift again. So yes, you have to wait unless you want to have braces twice.
