Most people want straight teeth because it makes their smiles nicer and more attractive. However, you can also make your mouth healthier by getting orthodontic care. Straight, evenly spaced teeth are easier to clean. So brushing, flossing, and regular dental cleanings will be more effective at removing plaque, tartar, and food particles. Whatever your reasoning is for pursuing orthodontics, we have several options for you:
- Traditional Braces – Brackets and wires are a tried-and-true technology for moving teeth where they should be. Our teen patients like to personalize their braces with different colored bands.
- Full-Banded Braces – These braces have a band (stainless steel or clear) that goes around your teeth and attaches to metal brackets. These can help fix the most severe alignment issues.
- Invisalign – For our most discreet treatment, these clear aligners replace brackets and wires. They seem to disappear when worn over your teeth.
You shouldn’t miss out on time with your friends because you don’t like your teeth. Your smile shouldn’t stop you from applying for a job, accepting an invitation for a date, or just smiling in photos, either. Don’t let your age stop you from making the changes you want to make. Today’s orthodontic care is just as effective for adults as it is for teenagers. It’s just a matter of finding the best option for you.
