THE PERFECT TIME IS NOW
Adult Treatment
Braces aren't just for kids anymore!
We're seeing more and more adult orthodontic patients at our office, and it's not hard to figure out why. Appliances that are barely noticeable have been developed to give adults more discreet choices when it comes to orthodontic treatment. And many adults realize that investing in a smile makeover can have significant benefits, socially and professionally. Straightening teeth can be an important part of that confidence-boosting makeover process.
No such thing as, "too old for braces"
Tooth alignment can be changed at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy, so there's no such thing as being too old for braces. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed for different age groups - including adults. A new smile can begin today.
The benefits of orthodontic treatment later in life
Orthodontic treatment at later stages in life can dramatically improve your personal appearance and self-esteem. Improving the health of your teeth and gums is equally important. Crooked teeth and a bad bite can contribute to gum and bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of the tooth enamel and surfaces, headaches and jaw joint (TMJ/TMD) pain.
Technology and appliances have advanced significantly
Good news! The new techniques and appliances we use greatly reduce discomfort levels, decrease the frequency of visits, shorten treatment time and may allow you to choose from several options. Your options may include metal braces, ceramic braces or transparent aligners.
Why should malocclusions be treated?
According to studies by the American Association of Orthodontists, untreated malocclusions can result in a variety of problems:
-
Crowded teeth are more difficult to properly brush and floss, which may contribute to tooth decay and/or gum disease.
-
Protruding teeth are more susceptible to accidental chipping.
-
Crossbites can result in unfavorable growth and uneven tooth wear
-
Openbites can result in tongue-thrusting habits and speech impediments
Ultimately, orthodontics does more than make a pretty smile—it creates a healthier you.
