Braces on adults?
What goes through your mind when you see an attractive person [that's 18+] with braces?
I don't think any less of someone who's over 18 and has braces. I know people at school who have braces, and a few people in my family had braces when they were older. I take it to mean they had a problem, and they chose to get it fixed.
I had braces when I was younger, and I actually just got four brackets on today so I can get another dental procedure done (but they're in the back, so you can't really see them). Regardless of what anyone else thinks, I have to have this procedure done, and I need braces before that can happen.
I feel so old when I see my orthodontist though. Even when I was filling out forms, it asked what grade I was in, and there was a line for my parent's signature, not mine.
Braces on any person, regardless of age, aren't inherently ugly or attractive. They do tend to lend a more youthful appearance to an already youthful face, especially in combination with other facial features such as big eyes, freckles, or a small nose.
Usually when I see an 18+ person with braces, I think that they must have had a minor dental problem that they just didn't bother to get corrected earlier in life.
Braces are NORMAL. I had them, glad to be rid of them, but definitely glad that I have the smile I do now!
Even if you do look "not quite as attractive" in them, it's definitely worth it if your teeth are bothering you.
good luck!
I think they are cute. I wonder, what is it like to kiss them and feel all that gear lol! It makes the closed lips more full and attractive.

Braces are completly normal. I don't think braces make anyone look ugly. Don't stress too much. My boyfriend has braces and I barely notice. If I see an attractive person with braces, I don't even notice them. Don't let it bring you down. Embrace your braces :]
