Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age. More and more adults are realizing that it is never too late for orthodontic treatment, and are finding that orthodontics can make a tremendous impact on their lives. Anyone, at any age, can appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. Current statistics show that one in every five orthodontic patients is over 21.

There are several differences between treating a growing child and an adult. However, there are few limitations in what we can accomplish, and we would be happy to discuss your options if you are thinking of orthodontic treatment. In addition to traditional brackets, we offer the option of Invisalign if appropriate for your treatment, as well as clear brackets to meet your esthetic needs.

Periodontal evaluation and monitoring is often required when treating adult cases. This will entail a consultation with a periodontist, who will evaluate the health of your soft tissue (gums) and your bone. A periodontal evaluation is important, as the health of your teeth, gums, and bone is of utmost importance and our number one priority. We want to make sure that orthodontic treatment will not cause any harm, and will result only in a healthier mouth, a more beautiful smile, a happier you!
