Default How old is too old for braces?

My gf has them. I want them. But being 25 and in braces is kinda meh to me. I interact with older people all the time...and already being so young, I always feel like I have to step my game up to get the mutual respect. Having braces too....:thinking:


But I want a nice smile

You are never too old honestly I see some older people all the time wanting to fix their teeth, nothing wrong with that. My friend is 28 and has invisalign but that shit is expensive, 5k isn't it?

Nah man, $5k is pretty standard for regular braces. Its CRAZY If I can get Invisalign for $5k, I will sign up tomorrow.

Really? My braces were like 2k, of course subsidized partially by my insurance I believe.
