Do you have to get braces at some point in your life?

Braces are only needed if your teeth are someway malaligned or maloccluded. If you have a perfect occlusion and your teeth are fairly well aligned, then there is no reason to get braces. Many people get impacted third molars which can cause malalignment even if they have a perfect occlusion and alignment (this happened to me!). If this happens, then you may need to get braces.

All in all, you do not have to ever get braces in your lifetime.

Most teens have braces. No one is perfect, and that goes for teeth too! If you have the slightest imperfection, you end up with braces. It results in an amazing smile and that's what most people want!! So not all, but most and that a big percentage, get braces at some point in their life. <3

If your teeth are crooked then yes. You dont have too but its better to have straight teeth. Now a days people treat it like a fad. Almost everyone in my school has/have/will braces and the others wont. I have them.

Most people need braces to make their teeth straight, but not everyone. My sister never needed them.

You don't have to. Braces are purely cosmetic, for people who don't like/want their teeth crooked. Crooked teeth aren't a health risk. But if

you need them and can afford them, why not?

No, you dont "have to" get braces, that is sometimes more for cosmetic purposes, unless it is required to prevent more damage. If you have a dental situation, contact your dentist. God keep u.

No of course not, but u should if u dont want screwed up teeth! haha

It's always up to the person. Also, many people don't need them.

only if your teeth are messed up or you have over/under bite. not everyone needs them. hope your one of the lucky ones! =]

not unless you have crooked teeth?
