So, I know now it was a big mistake and the only problem with my mouth is actually my canines on the top and bottom where my teeth around the back have obviously pushed them forward ever-so slightly. However, my dentist said that'd get worse as time goes on, and it'll be noticable, so braces are a good option.
I've thought about the braces (metal ones), and I'm going to go through with it now. I think I'm going for the appointment to get the x-rays etc. this month, so I think I'd have them on pretty soon, which is the sooner the better. I know this is such a silly question and I'm being an idiot, but do girls actually view braces as a 'turn-off' towards guys who have them? As I said earlier, I'm kind of vain, and just don't want it affecting my social life and such.
Also, and finally, is it possible to get away with 6 months treatment with minor problems in your teeth? I mean I don't mind wearing them for a year because I know it'll benefit me, but it's just at the age of 17, most people are getting their braces off - which is no one's fault but my own.
