Teeth are crooked
My teeth are crooked since I was a kid. I want to get braces, but given my age i've been told that the chances of success are low. Can you please advice me on this?

You can definitely get braces treatment done successfully for your age. We can do the treatment even at the age of 40 but the duration of the treatment may be bit long say 11/2 to 2 years for you
