A question about teeth....?

i know there is a chiche of english people with bad teeth, but i really think americans have an odd attitude about people%26#039;s teeth. i completely understand why you need braces if your teeth look crooked, but nearly EVERYONE gets them over there!





my teeth are naturally quite straight, and i dont have any snarly teeth, my cousin in america had teeth just like mine, but she got braces and now they look super human. why bother, they were perfectly good before!





i recently whitened mine and now theyre the same colour as my 5 year old sisters. i think they look good, maybe even a bit too white, but when i went over there evry1s teeth looked so white they were glowing blue. the adults teeth were WAY whiter than childrens milk teeth.





americans, is this a fair comment?





people from other countries, do you see what i meen?!

A question about teeth....?
I%26#039;m an American, and I don%26#039;t have a problem with other people%26#039;s teeth, but I hate my own. It may sound stupid, but I%26#039;m more self-conscious about my teeth than anything else. I think I%26#039;m the only one of my friends who has never had braces, but that%26#039;s only because I can%26#039;t afford them. I wish my teeth were whiter too, because even when I was young my teeth have always been naturally yellow-ish, no matter how much I brush. (And I don%26#039;t even drink coffee.) I know a few people who go to a cosmetic dentist every three months and have their teeth whitened, and pretty much everyone else, including me, does some sort of at-home treatment. I don%26#039;t like how they feel-like they%26#039;re too clean, but they look better.


Rich people don%26#039;t bother with teeth at all. I know one woman whose enitre family just has porcelin venirs so they don%26#039;t have to worry.
Reply:i live in america but yes i do believe that all teenages have to get braces...my parents were born and raised in mexico and they have ebautiful staright and hwite teeth, i cant believe it! i had braces and am in the process of getting them whittened.
Reply:Appearance is very important to people. But the reason that everyone has braces is because: (1) if they don%26#039;t their teeth may become worse over the years (2) they have an over/cross/underbite (3) fix a minor tooth problem. Nobody is born with perfect teeth so it%26#039;s only natural people might want them fixed. I don%26#039;t know... but I guess it%26#039;s sort of a trend to get braces here [U.S.]. A weird and painful one though :)
