Okay, so i'm going to the orthodontist tomorrow to get there opinion on wether or not i need braces. But i'm scared that i'm going to have to get headgear! i don't care wether i have to get it and wear it during the night or after school when i'm home.. but i really really don't want to have to wear it during the day and at school 24/7!! i know i shouldn't be worrying cause i don't know wether or not i need headgear but i'm just wondering.. does anyone know if they even do headgear as often anymore?

i'm 15 and I have an open bite on the sides of mouth (not the front) and yes i mean an open bite, not and over bite etc. (research it if you've never heart of it?) but most of my other teeth are fairly straight except for a few which are crooked. Do you think i would need headgear to correct my bite and teeth?

and please don't say that wearing headgear at school is fine and no one will notice or whatever, because it won't change my mind! thanks x
