Braces at 24!?!

[Langis]

Damn, I'm 24 and my dentist just told me I need Braces! I'm sure I'm not the only non-teenager with braces but it is still going to feel weird. Has anyone else had to get braces at 20+ here?

1. I got them when I was 29....

and had them on for a year.

It's no big deal.

2. Not me, personally...

but Kirsten Dunst is obviously wearing those "invisible" braces in Spider-Man.

3. I had them at 34.

Gave birth to my third kid with them on. Of course this was the second round - had them as an 8th grader too.

4. My husband got them at 56

He wore them for four years, and had them removed last year on his 60th birthday. He told me to be sure that when it was his time to go the funeral home people made sure he was smiling. :)

5. What about looking into these?

Not sure if they're appropriate or affordable for you, but it looks like a good option.

6. Yes, I have those (at 24)

It can be very difficult to take them out and sometimes they break.
