Reply: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.
Reply: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.
Reply:yes, an orthodontist won't touch a childs mouth until all the baby teeth are out.

Reply:Let me answer with a question.


If you lose all of your teeth, what exactly are you planning on attaching your braces to?
Reply: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.
