Orthodontic Care for Adults

Your smile is the first thing people notice when they see you. Crooked, crowded teeth or a misaligned bite can make you feel self-conscious no matter what your age. The good news is, with today’s advances in orthodontics, straighter teeth aren’t just for kids and teens anymore.

Now more than ever adults are successfully straightening their teeth for a healthier, aligned smile. Whether you’re looking for a cosmetic fix or wanting to improve your dental health, orthodontics can be used to overcome multiple issues that you may have had for years or have developed over time. This is because teeth can shift over the years even if they are healthy otherwise and affect your bite.

Changes in alignment can evolve over the years and leave you with inadequate blood supply between tooth roots because of diminishing supportive bone material or gum infections. By the time you are in your twenties, many of your bones have hardened and no longer grow. This also causes your tissue to take longer to adjust to new positions.

For those who have overbites or underbites, orthodontic treatment can be an effective treatment. This is important because misalignment makes it harder to clean teeth and sets the stage for oral bacteria and plaque to build up.

Of course, as an adult, you may not want to have metal braces visible in your smile. But there are other options available to you, including lingual braces (these are placed onto the back teeth if the teeth are long enough), ceramic braces (instead of using metal, a transparent ceramic material is used), and clear plastic aligners.

Clear aligners are one of the more popular options many adults and teens use to straighten their teeth and they are highly effective when fixing minor issues. Aligners work by wearing clear plastic aligner trays which gradually shift the teeth as you switch out the aligners every two weeks until the teeth are aligned according to the treatment plan.

Today, orthodontics is more affordable than ever, and having a healthy smile is vital for your health and it doesn’t hurt to have a great looking smile. So if you have been wanting straighter teeth and are ready for a change, we are here to help! To find out what your orthodontic options are, please give us a call today and schedule a consultation with our orthodontist. Join our team of satisfied patients by creating the straighter smile you have always wanted!

My daughter had a great first appointment! Everyone was amazing! No rushing and answered all my questions! Looking forward to a great experience for us!

Dr. Brent is so friendly and knowledgeable. He really cares about his patients needs and does his best to work within whatever constraints may exist. The staff are all friendly and warm, I just love the front of the house ladies, they're like my besties now! ❤️ I'm an incredibly anxious patient and they have all been warm and kind. As an older adult going through the process, everyone has been so kind and patient with me! I wouldn't recommend anywhere else!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your review Theresa! We have loved getting to know you and are so happy you've had such a wonderful experience here! You're besties say hi! ♥

My whole family has been going here since I was a small child. They have always been very kind and professional with everyone. Their office when walking in is very welcoming and makes you feel not so nervous. This office is the best when it comes to needing braces, they treat you so well and help you with everything you need even payments which are a huge help as an adult, HAHA.
Hade an appointment with them and they had Disney theme dress up, made the office so light and fun, put a smile on my face!!
Highly recommend this clinic to family and friends!!
