Is it possible to have braces on only sections of the teeth, and not all of the teeth?

I'm probably getting braces soon, and my teeth really aren't that bad. I've seen a picture of someone with braces, and it looks like they're not on all of their teeth...

Is it possible to have braces on only sections of the teeth, and not all of the teeth?
In most cases braces are applied to all the teeth, if they are adult teeth. The wire may not go into every tooth depending on if it is a Utility wire or a soft flexible wire and what the Orthodontist is trying to achieve with the wire at first, but inevitably you will have braces on all the teeth so they can make your whole smile a beautiful thing :o)
Reply:well ive gotten braces on just 4 of my teeth b4....but it probly depends on what ones need them
Reply:Yes, it is possible. No only are orthodontist trying to straighten your teeth but they also have to make you bite correctly.
Reply:THIS DEPENDS ON WHAT YOUR PARTICULAR CASE CALLS FOR. IF YOU STILL HAVE BABY TEETH THESE DON'T GET BRACES, BUT FULL BRACES MAY BE PUT ON LATER.
Reply:yes it's possible, but you're still going to have a wire going all the way around your teeth.





and it also depends on what your orthodontist recommends.
