Braces aren’t just for kids anymore. Tooth alignment can be changed at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed for different age groups – including adults. A large percentage of our patients are adults, and they agree that it’s never too late to improve their greatest asset – their smile..
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.
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, clear braces or transparent aligners that can be worn to improve mild cases of misaligned teeth.
During the initial examination, we will be able to determine the best possible treatment for your individual needs and to meet your expectations. During this initial examination, we can outline the treatment plan, time of treatment expected and the approximate cost.
Many adults have always been uncomfortable with their smile and believe that they should just be satisfied with the way things are. In today’s society, when something is as easy to correct with a time commitment and desire, it’s silly not to get additional information. A consultation to find information specific to your situation is recommended. Your smile is your greatest asset, we value the opportunity to make you’re the best it can be!
