Normally yes, you should loose all your teeth before you get braces.

You must have teeth to attach the braces to. If you didn't, there would be no way to get braces. Call your dentist and tell him/her you want brace and when can you start. Best of luck to you, and you won't be sorry. Straight teeth really help our self esteem which in turn makes more people want to be around us and we have a better social life. Here's a site I found for you about braces.

Yes you have to lose all your teeth because braces can only be done on permanent teeth. Also don't get all excited about braces, the pain is quite unbearable.

If you're talking baby teeth, then yes, you do need to lose all of them first. I got braces when I was 10 so just hang in there...it won't be long now.

Welcome to the international of braces. even as the teeth are moved the realm turns into humorous and loosey. As the teeth bypass cusps shift. you may commence to have contact between the maxillary and mandibular the teeth the position there changed into none beforehand. it really is element of the route. even as those 'prematurities' take position, certain, that is maximum alarming and uncomfortable. yet its favourite. imagine of it as shifting furniture in a darken homestead. you'll encounter furniture that changed into not there beforehand. i wish this facilitates!

Let me answer with a question.
If you lose all of your teeth, what exactly are you planning on attaching your braces to?

If you lost all your teeth, why would you even NEED braces. there would be no teeth to put them on!
