are braces even worth it

[valentine]

seems useless for most people and too expensive for what it is. its not like its going to fix recession anyway. i could get canthopexy for 1/3rd the price to fix retracted eyelids instead

Depends how bad the teeth are. Sometimes it's better to let it be, a little imperfection is not a deal breaker.

I can fix your shi if you want? Just pay me for a plane ticket to you, and give me a hammer and some shi

i seriously believe teeth dont matter as long as theyre white, its more about correcting bad bite in my case, and here proper orthodontic treatment costs thousands. im thinking of getting canthopexy first as its a lot cheaper

It can be too bad:

But as you say it's very usually coupled with bite problems.

Are you sure you even need canthopexy? What would it change?

you can see how retracted the lower eyelids are even when squinting. when fully relaxed the amount of scleral show is just comical, just too droopy and requires surgery

really difficult to find a good orthodontist here in netherlands, they all have fucked teeth and braces arent very common because its "not considered a medical issue" my teeth are all fucked and crooked and they told me im fine because theyre white and look healthy

Looks great bud. If something is missing in your face, it's not eye area. Although maybe your IPD or other ratios are screwed, but that's a different topic.
One could say you are handsome by looking at your eyes.

No need, it's your decision after all.

True unless you get braces done for free by getting your school paid for it when you’re still very young but in your adults years it very much pointless to fix your teeth unless they’re very bad but tbh even with bad teeth you doesn’t matter much because you can always fraud by not opening your mouth that high when you talk

well yes im just always trying to get more opinions from people

my ortho completely nuked my forward growth by unnecessarily yanking 2 teeth instead of employing a palate expander. However, the alternative (doing nothing) was i probably get an infection

so the answer is probably not unless u got actually fucked teeth

only my lower teeth are fucked. i do have a narrow upper palete technically but i dont think that matters, kind of a meme

braces saved my life, if it's only your lower teeth though i wouldn't pay all that as it doesn't fix any recession just like you pointed out
