Why Braces for Adults?

Braces offer numerous benefits for adults, including:

  • Correcting Dental Issues: Braces can address a wide range of dental issues commonly experienced by adults, including crooked teeth, overcrowding, gaps, and misaligned bites. In addition, patients who suffer from TMJ problems will benefit from oral appliances and braces. By addressing these issues, adults can achieve a straighter, healthier smile and improve their overall oral health.
  • Enhancing Confidence: A beautiful smile can have a transformative effect on an adult’s self-esteem and confidence. By addressing cosmetic concerns with braces, adults can feel more confident in their personal and professional lives, leading to improved social interactions and opportunities.
  • Improving Oral Health: Straighter teeth are easier to clean and maintain, reducing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues in the long run. By investing in orthodontic treatment, adults can enjoy improved oral health and a reduced risk of dental problems in the future.
  • Long-Term Investment: Orthodontic treatment is a long-term investment in an adult’s oral health and overall well-being. With proper care and maintenance, the results of braces can last a lifetime, providing adults with a straight, healthy smile well into their golden years.

Traditional Metal Braces

These are the most common type of braces and consist of metal brackets and wires. While they are highly effective, they are also the most noticeable option.

What to Expect During Treatment

The braces journey begins with a consultation with Dr. Peter Worth, where he will conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth and bite and discuss the recommended treatment plan. Once braces are placed, you will need to visit our office regularly for adjustments and monitoring of your progress. It’s important to maintain good oral hygiene habits during treatment, including brushing and flossing regularly and avoiding certain foods that can damage braces.
