Adult Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment is no longer just for teens. In fact, the American Association of Orthodontists cites that one in five orthodontic patients is over the age of 21. Adult braces will dramatically increase your self-esteem and decrease premature wear on your teeth. They also help stop gum disease because straight teeth are easier to clean. Plus, braces reduce TMJ-related headaches. Bottom line: you’re never too old for braces because you’re never too old for good oral health.

Common reasons why adults are considering orthodontic treatment:

• A misaligned bite or malocclusion, causing teeth to fit together incorrectly
• Teeth are crowded or spaced apart, possibly causing tooth decay or gum disease
• Abnormal jaw pain, or pressure that is caused by crooked teeth
• Desire for a beautiful, confident smile
   

Straight teeth are healthy teeth

Teeth that are properly aligned are easier to keep clean with flossing and brushing, and may help prevent other health problems.

A beautiful, straight smile builds confidence

Orthodontic treatment can help boost your self-confidence, giving you a better quality of life and the freedom to smile without holding back!

Mouths left untreated can get worse

Not receiving orthodontic treatment when it’s needed can create long-term health issues costing you more in the end.
