ADULT TREATMENT
Braces aren’t just for kids anymore. Smiles can be improved at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. 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 tooth enamel surfaces, headaches and jaw joint (TMJ) pain. The techniques and appliances used greatly reduce discomfort levels, decrease the frequency of visits, shorten treatment time and look much better. Braces today are not the painful, bulky braces they used to be in the 1960’s or 1970’s! Today's braces can be decorated with cool elastic colors, be nearly invisible or completely clear (Invisalign).
