I Have A Misplaced Midline, Will My Dentist Allow Me To Get Braces?

Q.
I’m 14 turning 15, and my teeth are pretty straight for the most part but my insisors are a bit crooked but they look straight. My problem is that I have a misplaced midline because I sucked my thumbs for 11 years. I just noticed a couple weeks ago. I measured it and its about 3.5mm off. It also is very irritating to bite because the lip also feels weird. My mom pointed out that my face is now a bit assymetrical. This is getting to me a little bit and I don’t want it to cause confidence or negative dental health issues in the future. I would rather get it sorted now. Will my dentist allow me to get braces?? If not what other treatment options are available to me? Braces are my preferred choice and as I said having them now when I am younger suits me better, I couldn’t stand having them when I am an adult.

I can’t really speak for him but I guess it will be correctable with fixed braces so ask him when you go for a check up.
