I heard people said adult’s teeth don’t move that much so getting braces may took some time to fix your teeth compared to teenagers. Is it true?
Should an adult get a braces?

I had braces when I was 17.
Which is already way too old.
But teeth do move if there is space.
For an adult (for me at 27) they removed two teeth(they were bad anyway) and then they moved on their own.

Ah also, ask your dentist, don't think we have trained dentists in this forum

Got mine at 17, still have them on because my teeth are stubborn lmao
You can get braces anytime, I know plenty of people aged 30-40 who got them and their teeth moved fine
Though dentists can let you know how much time it'll take exactly if you get them now

A friend of mine got braces in her 20s, so I think it's still okay. But you should definitely consult your dentist!
If you have the means, you'd like to get them and your dentis approves, why not?

I got braces when I was 21, and one of my mom's cousins had braces well into her 30s, so I think you should be fine. Consult with your dentist, though, to assess your personal situation.

If they want.

Sure
-
plenty of adults get them

well, regardless if it takes longer or not, the fact of the matter is that they do still work, therefore it can be benneficial to still get them.
I'm 22, and I got braces ah a few years ago I think... I'm not sure when they are supposed to come off, but they are working for me as my under bite isn't as bad as it used to be... I'll have to see the real results when they actually come off though. My orthodontist said I would need to wear a retainer at night to maintain the shape and stuff.
