There are many reasons why adults are choosing to have orthodontic care, more now than ever.Often our adult patients had braces earlier in life and their teeth are shifting out of place again, often from not wearing a retainer, or perhaps they were unable to seek quality orthodontic care in the past and feel that now is the right time to invest in a great smile and a healthier bite.
The benefits of orthodontic care as an adult include:
• Can help prevent or improve periodontal problems
• Can help prevent or reduce further bone loss around teeth
• Improves ability of the dentist to restore missing teeth
• Improves aesthetics for a better smile and facial appearance
• Improves function of teeth
• Improves self-confidence and self-esteem
• Improves oral health
