go with invisalign. most orthodontists will do free consultations, get as many quotes as possible. for example, I was told I wasn't an invisalign candidate by multiple orthos and was quoted 6k for metal braces. found another ortho who will do full invisalign for 4.6k zero down zero percent financing in house. orthodonists and dentists are worse than pajeets, don't trust them.

my entire life post-braces people have complimented me on my teeth and have told me they love my smile and i have perfect teeth etc. it's worth it if you keep your teeth white with charcoal toothpaste, white strips, and wear your retainer for several years after your braces are off and then once a week after that. they have at home options now for clear liners

For those whose teeth are not terribly crooked, they may also want to look into Smile Direct Club, who also use clear plastic aligners. It's quite a bit less expensive than Invisalign and results are good. Also, because they're user removable, you shouldn't have any problems keeping your teeth clean. I used them and it only took 6 months to straighten out my teeth.

braces were the best investment I made in my life

they were "linguals" so in the inside of my mouth

some people put "fake" teeth on their teeth then (just like hollywood stars) but I think I don't even need it now

I did it when I was 22 y/o and I was in army that's why I could afford it

my teeth were horrible before that, really, I had a hole in the smile

No way, you have to wear a retainer for the rest of your life and if you lose it your teeth get weakened and start shifting back into place.

My ex had braces and it seemed like a really bad choice, I'm glad I decided not to. Although I only have a few crooked teeth in the back and it's not very noticeable.

I wore a retainer for 6 years after I had braces and one day said fuck it. My teeth shifted a bit but they haven't really changed that much. It's been about 4 years so far since I stopped wearing it.

Not saying they won't shift because mine obviously have. But worst case scenario I have to get braces again in another 6 years from now. My teeth are still incredibly straight compared to what they once were.

Although I had braces when I was a kid, not into my adult years so that might have something to do with it
