Should I get braces?

[coop_rr123]

Im currently 15 when i was younger around 11 or 12 i had a palate expander due to crowding, now that i am 15 i have a slight overbite around class 2 and a gap in between my front 2 teeth. My dentist advised to get braces but I dont want to ruin my face. What should i do?

I got braces for kind of the same reason, it helped me a lot. (Getting them removed in a couple of weeks). The thing you are worrying about is purely pseudoscience. You might look less bone dense but that’s mostly due to bloating and inflammation and the braces temporarily, physically pushing your skin/ fat out. Having braces is not like getting wisdom tooth removal. I recommend you get braces. If you do, ask for rubber bands to bring your lower jaw forward to fix your overbite.
