    It is, yes.

    It usually doubled my time cleaning my teeth and braces, so I just quit altogether while going through the orthodontic treatment.

    That might be the case in America, perhaps.

    However, in the UK it seems there's increasing trends of children aged from around ten onwards engaging in... well illegal activity such as sex (have to be sixteen), alcohol and cigarettes (have to be eighteen for both); all simply to fit in with what they believe to be the societal norm. There's rising figures for teenage pregnancies, particularly in the south.

    I started smoking around twelve or so, as a social thing, and I believe I got my brace... around fourteen or so. It's a bad habit though, and one that's very hard to shake off, but having the brace gave me a bit of discipline and the thought of "why am I putting myself through twice as much work each morning and night for a packet of fags?".

    That and it's darn expensive.

    Quick word of advise, make sure to clean your teeth obsessively once you have the braces. I know a guy who had braces and then had them taken off. He didn't really clean his teeth properly though when he had them on and as soon as the braces came off he was left with a mouth full of really yellow teeth. I've never seen anything like it really, seriously, there like the deepest yellow I've ever seen, it isn't nice.

    I hate braces so much. Western culture really needs to place more value on white teeth than straight teeth. Or develop better braces.
