The most common reason i hear from people who would like to undertake orthodontic treatment to straighten their teeth and correct their dental problems but hesitate or decide not too is that they feel they are TOO old to get braces. Are you too old to get braces? To put it simply, NO, you are not too old for braces.

Though it is more common to receive treatment as a youth, especially as we have become more adept at preventative orthodontic treatment, more and more adults are choosing to take the leap and transform their smile. I would estimate that roughly 25% of my patients are what i would call adult.

Another hesitation some people have is that they feel that getting braces is merely a cosmetic procedure. This is not always the case. Not only are you NEVER too old for braces, getting braces could be GOOD for your health. Getting braces as an adult can correct a variety of dental problems, such as:

• stopping the gradually worsening damage that can be caused by overcrowded teeth
• re-alignment to correct bite abnormalities (such as an overbite or underbite)
• correcting jaw position
• correcting jaw joint problems from mis-aligned teeth
• helping with teeth grinding

A common amongst adults is ‘how will i look as an adult with braces?’. Many adult patients at Walkow Orthodontics decide that Invisalign Clear braces are the best solution for them, with the clear, invisible braces being best way to transform their smile without interfering with their day-to-day life or appearance.
