I'm 24 and I just got braces ! I was meant to get them in my teens and my parents even took me to a few consultations to get my teeth cleaned but for whatever reason decided to not go through with it :'( probably money reasons. Now I'm 24 working full time and decided to make the call. Better late than never ! First day to the rest of my life towards having a beautiful smile.

I'm 23 and will be getting my braces in a couple months. I'll be 24 by then. I have to wait for my palatal expander to complete its expansion before getting the braces.

50 year old female with metal braces top and bottom. Why not? I see more and more 'mature' people getting this done and improving their smile. Age should not deter anyone doing anything. I'm proud of my braces and they don't stop me from doing anything; except eating toffee and gum.

I can't vote... because I was 10. I haven't read all the replies, but I'd wager I'm one of the youngest on here. Again at almost 22.

31 and metal braces both top and bottom. Loads of issues with my teeth and getting braces to correct them . Cosmetics benefit is an added advantage.
