What's wrong with that? I don't think people randomly pick an age to get braces. Circumstances may make them choose to get braces over the age of 20. Big deal.

I'm 22 and I was recently told I may have to get braces, I'm not pleased by this news, but getting braces this late in age isn't a big deal for me either. As long as they get fixed. 20 isn't that old..... >.>

no because maybe their teeth just recently got cricked and were straight since now

if they're willing to wear braces i don't see how it's weird. But maybe on some people it might look weird, so maybe.

It's not weird. It's fixing crooked teeth. Or, oh yeah, orthondontics.

"Old people" have teeth too, you know.

braces are not just for teeth.

they correct jaw problems.

the longer you wait to get braces and when you get older its harder to move your teeth around so its best to get them while your young biggrin.gif nope but i want to see one

One of my mom's friends is in her early forties, and she has braces. My aunt also had them when she was in her early to mid-twenties. It's not weird.

Caring enough about your oral health to get braces, no matter your age, is not a weird thing. :)
