I am 14 years old and all my friends already have braces, and i dont want to be the only one with crooked teeth. i need 4 bicuspid teeth pulled out in order to get braces. i am worried and afraid about the pain involved, but even more so about how im going to look with for gaps in my mouth after they get pulled out. i am so worried that i often find myself crying. i want to have beautiful teeth so bad but having that many teeth pulled out frightens me. i have never had teeth pulled out before. CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE? i appreciate it so much.
