My orthodontist told me that I don’t need braces, because I only have a few crooked teeth (mainly the front ones). However, I decided I wanted to get them to make my teeth straight (purely for aesthetic reasons). The problem is that after doing more research, I found out that braces can sometimes cause recession, and I’m really scared that this might happen. I still have time to decide not to get them. I’m 15 years old and so far I don’t have any visible recession.
 
Theyll make you more recessed if youre already recessed somewhere so you should be alr but honestly I really dont like braces thats just my opinion though
