My teeth are a little crooked (nothing major) but I would like to get them fixed so it won't be hanging over my head. Thing is, I'm almost 19 and most people get that done in their early teens. I don't want to completely forego dating for 2 prime years while they're on. For anyone who's had them, how much of a hassle and obstacle are they?

Mine are 1k cheaper than regular braces, I'll have them on over a year shorter than regular braces, they're removable, and completely clear.

Well buddy, I'm 19 and just got braces put on about 8 months ago ( like 2 weeks after I turned 19).
I had really bad teeth, but my fricken ortho made me wait till my mouth was done growing. Eventually I ditched him and found a better one, he was like "whoa, you shoulda had braces on ages ago."
I just kissed a chick for the first time ever a month or so ago, she said shortly after "thats the first time I've kissed some one with braces -- you cant even tell."
So dont worry about it. I'm self conscious of my smile, but less so now than before. I cant wait till I get them off, I've never been big on smiling, and wish to change that.
