Adult Braces

Date: April 16, 2015
Many people think Orthodontists treat only children… yet every day, more adults are discovering the advantages of orthodontic treatment. Eventually, our jaw joints, teeth, and periodontium (or gums) are going to break down. Orthodontic treatment puts the teeth and jaws in the ideal position to postpone your breakdown point.

Contemporary braces are more comfortable, far less noticeable, and require fewer appointments. The new Invisalign system offers some patients treatment without braces, using clear aligners instead. Beautiful, straight teeth are for everyone… and straight teeth can improve your overall dental health, your appearance, and your self-confidence. Orthodontic treatment can help adults of any age achieve a healthier, more beautiful smile. New patients are always welcome. Initial evaluations are complimentary, referrals are not required, and early evening appointments are available.
