Do I need braces?
I absolutely HATE my horrible, ugly smile. It significantly lowers my self-esteem, but the dentist has never suggested braces, therefore my parents refuse to consider it. Our insurance doesn't cover braces, and my mom and dad tell me that my teeth look great. But I just want straight teeth. I'd be willing to pay partially for braces or Invisalign. Is there any more affordable way to have my "fangs" fixed? How do my teeth look to you?

I've had my teeth filed down once before, including those "fangs" (haha)... What I don't like is how there are obvious spaces when my teeth aren't together... if that makes any sense?

I think your teeth are fine but if you want straight teeth braces are basically the only thing you can do I think. I have braces and they really help. You should probably ask the dentist if it wud be possible to get braces and if it would help you.

There is nothing wrong with your smile. But if your not satisfied, I would recommend invisalign.♥

Braces would work but go to your dentist. They are not bad at all and the dentist can probably fix them without braces.

You really don't even need them. Very white though and pretty smile. =D

Your teeth are almost perfect. I wouldn't if I were you. Plus, sometimes people run into complications with braces and your face could change. I was very happy with myself before braces and had great self esteem and all I wanted was to straighten my teeth. Now, my cheeks have sunken in and the sides of my face are uneven because of a tooth my ortho decided to pull out on one side. My mid line is now off by a half a tooth and I will be in braces a total of 2.5 years instead of just 1 year like I was originally told. All because of 1 tooth they decided to pull out unnecessarily.... My teeth weren't that bad to begin with and now I really regret getting braces because my face looks different after all the shaving down of teeth and the extraction.

Oh, and my braces will end up costing me $13,000 by the time I am done because I went to a bad orthodontist who did not care for aesthetics to begin with..... If I could take this back I would in a heartbeat but unfortunately I have to suck it up and deal with it... I was so happy with myself before... I am not happy with mysefl anymore... I look too different I hate it...

Anyway, don't spend the money... don't do it, your teeth are fine! Beautiful teeth and smile you have ! =)

k tricky♥
I dont think you are anywhere near needing braces. o.o
I actually think you have a pretty nice smile, especially when you can see your whole face in the last one. =]

And Invisilign is like $5,000 I believe. I don't think you need to pay that kind of money for your teeth at all. Beause your teeth may not be completely straight, but by no means do they look very crooked.


ANd you said "your fangs"
I believe that you can get your teeth filed, but i think that could make your teeth sensitive?
Ask your dentist. Maybe insurance even covers it.

you first gave a picture of your teeth only, then you brought your whole face, and you know what i thought: at first i thought well her teeth are not so bad but not perfect and then i saw you face, and i gotta tell there is something u should know, having what u want is not the answer, satisfaction never comes trust me, so what do u think will happen when u get your braces, it'll hurt at first, and it might change a lot in how u eat and makes you worry, not to mention that you'll be spending a lot of money, on what, for what, you'll take 'em off at the end and you'll realize that it doesn't matter, that you don't care, that there's no difference. we worry so much about how we look, your face is beautiful, and after all the smile comes from the heart it doesn't matter how straight your teeth are!

I personally don't think that you will need braces, but if you think that you want to improve your smile you should see an orthodontist. I don't see anything wrong, but if your orthodontist sees something then your probaly will only need them for like 6 months to 1 year at the most.

OK Sweetheart! After Carefully looking at your pictures, I must tell you what you have already heard a million times=
They are beautiful!! My name is Angela and I am an Intern Dentist. There is nothing wrong with your teeth. Braces, for people who do NOT need them can do them more wrong than good. This is more of a "cosmetic" interest than a "recommended" procedure, which is why your dentist has not "suggested" braces. You must know this- Like I have said to many of my patients before-" if someone cannot see you past your teeth, than you are better off without out them. If someone sees you for your soul, and who you really are, than this is the person you deserve. Wake up darling- you have a lovely smile, and what looks to me like very healthy teeth, which is more important! Your confidence can only be brought up by you, and not "braces"/ However, if you do decide to go "cosmetic" Please do it for the right reasons, and not for the opinions of others. But guaranteed- the cosmetic dentist will tell you that you are out of your mind!!!
You are beautiful, with a lovely smile.........

Your teeth look fine and there is no problem with your bite. If you got braces you probably would not have them for that long. If it lowers your confidence though maybe you should get them if you think it will make you feel better.

you have a pretty smile, but if having braces will make you more confident then go for it!

Ya get me?
I think your teeth look healthy and nice as they are. You are a cute girl. It is true braces would straighten them up, but I don't think it completely necessary. I just got out of my second round of braces......I'm not sure people even noticed I got them off. I think I look much better, but truthfully everyone is their own worst critic. I was probably much harder on myself than anyone else.

You look like a freakin' Crest commercial - your teeth are fine.

If it's the 'fang' look that you have on your canines, your dentist can just file the point off of those - it doesn't even require a shot most of the time.
