Braces aren't just for kids anymore. Our "most mature" patient, Adele, was 73-years old when she received orthodontics and she was so happy she did it. Adele proves that tooth alignment can be changed at any age if your gums and bone structures are healthy, which we evaluate on every adult patient. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed for different age groups - including adults. Your new smile can begin today.
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.
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 different types of braces. Your choices may include metal braces, translucent braces, or transparent aligners that can be worn to improve mild cases of misaligned teeth.
A large percentage of our patients are adults, and they agree that it's never too late to improve their greatest asset — their smile.
