Yes you can go for braces at your age, it might take little more time than for patients of younger age but it is natural and conservative way of achieving esthetic and functional results. In fact it is good that you decided to go for braces, it is good for your long term dental health.

Advantage is superb esthetics, and no one will come to know why do you start looking prettier day by day.
Disadvantage of lingual braces is little bit discomfort in initial days.
Cost varies from 75000 to 2 lac or more, as it depends upon the complexity of the condition.

There are no alternative..and even after removing braces you have to use retainers.
Otherwise the gap will develop again.

Hey there, avoid biting with your front teeth but if the sweet is soft enough you can eat it else make small bites of it and chew with back teeth.

Definitely, it can be. But lot of factors have to be analysed, your age, growth left, bone position, soft tissue position, any habits associated, presence of spacing or crowding. Depending on the findings your dentist may look for and decide the best treatment plan for you.

Hi there, yes you can definitely but chances of treatment failure are more in advanced age so you need to follow your dentists instructions very strictly for better results.
