Braces?

[ancientlight]

Hi all.
Here I am again asking for advice 
So my son (almost 13) , needs braces. 

He hates the idea of braces, hates how he'd be struggling to eat certain foods with them, how to keep them clean etc.
What would be best ? Are braces a good idea ?
His dentist suggested he get some , actually two dentists did.

What would be some options or alternatives perhaps?
Thanks!

Bit hard to answer mate.  How bad are your son's teeth? 

If buckled I suggest yeah, get the braces.  If not so bad I suggest waiting until your son is an adult and can decide for himself. 

Braces normally require a brushing after each meal.  Which can be a good thing.  But I'm only surmising.  

My thoughts only,

Kind regards,

I know. I'm not at all sure what to do. And orthodontics aren't cheap! Thanks for trying though

How about Invisalign?  I don't know the limitations of what it can do to teeth, but it may be worthwhile pursuing this a bit.

He says he read they can stain teeth , so he doesn't seem eager to try them . 
Good idea though
