I hate that my Mom made me get braces, for the whole duration of wearing braces, I was laughed at!
Well braces are made to align and straighten teeth and help improve dental health, so thank your mom.
That's true.. I had teeth that originally were not 'sitting' together correctly, I guess it was worth it, did you wear braces?
No, but I do no that orthos is the greek word for straight, and odont means tooth whcih explains why dentist are called ortodontics.
You're lucky.. braces were not fun.. Interestingly braces were invented over 300 years ago in France by Pierre Fauchard
You know Pierre Fauchard wrote "Le Chirugien Dentiste" which is the first  complete scientific description of dentistry,
The desire to have perfectly straight teeth can be traced back to Ancient Egypt. I bet the pharaohs smiles were great! 
It's funny to think that Ancient Egyptians were worried about their teeth in 30 BC.
Yeah haha, but unfortunately they didn't have the same technology.. They used guts from either horses or sheep to line the teeth
Gross, but they also played an important role in developing Mediterranean maritime technology including ships and lighthouses.
