It's never to late. I'm a month away from 38, and I'm going through braces right now! :-D
Reply:20 is a fine age for braces, people get them at all ages now. fix your teeth, they are very important.
Reply:Hey there, my mom is getting braces for the first time in her life, and she just turned 57...so I don't think it is ever to late. =) After her braces are off she's getting veeners put in and she's very excited about it...good luck! =)
Reply:My roommate just got them in March and she is 20. I'd say go for it.
Reply:My aunt didn't get braces until she was in her 20's. They worked just fine.
Reply:I have seen 30 year-olds wearing braces and just think, Tom Cruise was wearing braces at 40.
Reply:It is never to late to get braces. Although the older you get the more it will hurt!! At least thats what i have heard!!
Reply:no it's defiantly not to late people do it all the time in their fifties and over get them done and see a whole new acceptance among other people and it'll make u feel better they even have clear ones so that you don't have to broadcast it to the world when you open ur mouth
Reply:no...many people have braces...even people older than you...but it sucks...cuz when someone thinks of braces...they usually think of teenagers and little people...and so you would be in your early 20s getting braces...it may shock people at first...but they will get over it sooner or later....but you have to be prepared for the pain that is associated with it...i have braces now and im only 15...ive had them for like 2-3 years...it hurts some times...but if your all good with that...then i say go ahead
Reply:I don't believe so, but I'm not a dentist or anything. I went though my braces stage when I was younger. But you might do well to look into the clear braces so that you don't get harrassed or teased. They might be still more expensive then the traditional ones, but it's up to you. Also, I've seen 40 year olds have braces so I think you're good to go for tit. Just go get checked out to see if you can. Answers isn't gonna help you as much as professionals can.
Reply:It is never tooo late to do something! You can do it when ever you feel prepared to do it. the earlier the better i did it at 16!
Reply:head of the orthodontics department in my faculty wears braces ast the age of 50. he was a prof.
Reply:Definitely not too late. :)


People in their 40s wear braces for some time and I have heard everyone saying it is really worth it.





If you feel uncomfortable about metal braces, you can choose plastic ones that are almost invisible. There are so many materials available that you will definitely find a suitable option. Some people even consider braces as jewelery...





Thinking about the future, wearing braces might last for some years depending on how much needs to be done. Also, you might not be allowed to eat taffy and some other candies that might stick to braces. Though I think that is a tiny problem in comparison to advantages...





If you get braces now, the probability of getting head aches, hurting neck etc. decreases and naturally, you will also get a great smile soon.





Good luck!
