Depends.: Depends what you mean by "bad." you may think they look ok enough. The dentist also looks at how your teeth and jaws actually function - how much wear, whether teeth positions prevent good cleaning, even whether teeth positions and jaw size and shape are interfering with good breathing, swallowing and sleeping. There's a lot more to it than just crowding. Treatment now may prevent problems later.

Bad is "relative": Not bad at all. If you have some simple esthetic concerns with your teeth or smile, braces can improve upon them - - - and that would be of benefit to you. That is the key qualifier.

Varies: If teeth don't look right, they don't function right either. If either you or your family dentist have even the slightest concern, go see a qualified orthodontic specialist for an opinion. May as well make your personal decision based on fact.
