If you’ve always been self-conscious about your smile because of crooked or crowded teeth, or the way your teeth function, Adult Orthodontics may be the solution for you. It is estimated that 25% of orthodontic patients are adults. Orthodontics is the dental practice that aligns or straightens one’s teeth. Orthodontists are trained dental specialists that can change the positioning of your teeth, improve your smile and the way your jaw functions.
5 Reason to Consider Adult Orthodontics
- Crowded and crooked teeth are harder to clean and may be more likely to get cavities and gum disease.
- A bad bite can make it hard to chew some foods and may cause some teeth to wear down.
- Teeth that stick out are more easily chipped or broken.
- A bad bite can cause muscle tension, pain in the jaw, and could be the source of other symptoms, such as headaches.
- Fixing a bad bite improves your smile, your health and your confidence!
The first step to getting any Orthodontic treatment is to meet with an Orthodontist for a consultation. The Orthodontists at AXIS Dental Group will review your present situation and goals, discuss the various options available to you, such as Braces (a mechanical device with brackets and wires) or Invisalign (a brand of clear/invisible braces), identify the optimal solution and then create a treatment plan that’s best suited to your needs. The length of time, cost and what the procedure will involve are some of the issues that would be discussed at this appointment.
