2 years old with 2 baby teeth braces, is that normal?

No: We do not typically treat people with orthodontics until at least age 7. I would see a pediatric dental specialist.

No, See Pedodontist: for evaluation. A pedodontist is a dentist who specializes in caring for children's teeth.

No: no unless it was done for bracing/splinting the teeth after trauma but still WAY out of the norm.
