Does everyone have to get braces on the bottom?!


Question: Does everyone have to get braces on the bottom.?
Because my bottom teeth is already straight.. Are you do need them because they are gonna shift your jaw in the right spot right.....?.?.?
But it would look kinda silly without bottom braces lol



I'm going to the orthodonist for the very first time on Thursday of this week..Health Question & Answer

Answers:
Nope, my bottom teeth are perfect, which is why i only have braces in the top.. And they don't look weird at all on me, because when you smile, your bottom teeth don't show.. REALLY! Keep smiling!! =D

Besides, your orthodontist cant FORCE you to get braces in the bottom you know...... but if he does, and your bottom teeth are perfect, he might be doing this for money.. (who knows)Health Question & Answer
No.. I got braces on only my top teeth, because the bottom was already straight.. All my orthodontist really told me about it was that my results would not be AS good as far as realigning my jaw and that the potential of my teeth shifting after I took them off would be greater (I don't know why......)..

I think it looks fine with just the top, by the way..Health Question & Answer
Well I havent in my life had braces but i have friends that have in the bottom, and those friend are the most popular kids on school.... so dont worry.. Oh and you say your theth are straight.? well you SAY you have straight teeth but your dentise is an expert in it so dont worry everything is allright!!Health Question & Answer
There is nothing silly to be without bottom braces.. Many have braces only on the top.. In your case orthodontist suggests bottom braces if you have problem with the bite.. The ortho can correct the bite with braces and rubberbands..Health Question & Answer
Usually yeah, because my bottom teeth are perfect yet the orthodontist put them on the bottom so that the top and bottom can stay allinged and i can have a proper bite..Health Question & Answer
well mr../ms, ortho shud be able to tell u if u need it 4 ur bottom teeth but do ask for a reason either way..............because if u feel u dun need it and ortho says u do, thr are chances its for money..so make sure he isnt bullshitting uHealth Question & Answer
um ive already had had braces
not everyone needs braces on the bottom..
i had the jaw problem because my teeth were already pretty straight.. a couple of my friends only had them on their top teeth though..
well, i wish u luck at the orthodontist!! lolHealth Question & Answer
i dont know, like i've seen people without the bottom ones.. but it's very rare.. i have top and bottom.. i think they do have to straighten your jaw, and you can't do that without bottom braces, right.?Health Question & Answer
Not everyone.. usually braces are put on the bottom to anchor it because as your top teeth move, so will your bottom, to a certain extent..Health Question & Answer
if an ortho told you that you need them, then trust them because they know what they are doing.. Your bite is probably off and even though they look straight, your teeth probably arent lining up with your top teeth.. It will look fine dear..Health Question & Answer
no.. you don't need to..
the othrodonist will determine whether you need braces on the bottom or not..Health Question & Answer
not always, but it isn't always them being striaght, it is about the bit.. So you might get it on both.. thats what happened to my sisHealth Question & Answer
no not necessary and actually not that silly looking.. braces arent always the ginormous hunks of metal that many of us knew when we were younger...... small, not as noticeable so just the upper set would look probably even betterHealth Question & Answer
it depends, sometimes the bottom braces are put on because of the lineament of the jawHealth Question & Answer
I thought I didn't have to have them either, then one fateful day they we're latched onto my teeth only to cause a pain that could not even be dulled by Chloraseptic and Tylenol/Codeine..Health Question & Answer
no, not everyone needs bottom braces.. My friends teeth were, what she thought perfectly straight, and all she got was a clear retainer..Health Question & Answer
Usually, yes!! To keep the top and bottom teeth aligned together properly..........So you have a proper bite..Health Question & Answer
you can just have the top.. but if your bottom teeth aren't almost perfect then they're gonna put them onHealth Question & Answer
It depends on your teeth......i know alot of people who got top braces but not bottom ones and bottom ones but not top ones......Health Question & Answer
