You definitely have a choice if you're older than 18. If you're younger than 18, that's up to your parent or legal guardian. They may ask you whether or not you want to do it, but ultimately, that's their decision. There are alternatives to traditional braces, if you want your teeth straightened but don't want to have the obvious metal braces attached to your teeth, you could use invisible braces, which are clear, plastic retainer-like mouth pieces that you wear all the time except for when eating or brushing your teeth that adjust your teeth for you. Ultimately, it is up to the dental patient or their legal guardian as to whether or not you get braces.

Regular braces have been known to cause what is called "root resorption". This essentially means that the roots of your teeth are eaten away at. While this is not always the case with regular braces, it does occur. That's what makes Invisalign a better choice. The force applied to your teeth to straighten them, is far smaller than that of regular braces, making the likelihood of root resorption next to nothing.
