What will my braces look like?
Ugly braces are a thing of the past. Today, braces can be made in a variety of styles, so you’ll have a lot of options to choose from. Whether you want them to be colorful and vibrant or clear and subtle, your orthodontist can find you the braces you’re looking for. If you don’t like any of the designs, you can always make them invisible with transparent braces. Braces can even be worn behind your teeth and hidden from sight.
Can all adults wear braces?
In many cases, orthodontic treatment is still a possibility for adult patients. Unfortunately, some adults have receded gumlines or shallow roots, which make braces impossible to wear. It is always best to consult your orthodontist to be sure.
Are there orthodontists that specialize on adult patients?
Yes, there are specialists in adult orthodontics. However, all orthodontists that are board-certified have been trained in treating adult patients. Just be sure that your orthodontist takes his or her time with your braces. The average teenager needs to get their braces tightened every 2-4 weeks, while adult patients should only have their braces tightened every 3-6 weeks.
