Why consider orthodontic treatment?
Here are some reasons why you should consider getting orthodontic treatment as an adult:
- Improved oral health: Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean with regular brushing and flossing. Orthodontic treatment can help prevent other oral health issues.
- Boosted self-confidence: Orthodontic treatment can give you a beautiful, straight smile that can enhance your self-esteem and quality of life. You’ll have the freedom to smile without feeling self-conscious.
- Prevent long-term health issues: Ignoring the need for orthodontic treatment can lead to more severe dental problems down the line, which can be more costly to treat in the long run.
Common issues adults seek orthodontic treatment for:
A bad bite or malocclusion, causing teeth to fit together incorrectly
Teeth are crowded or spaced apart, possibly causing tooth decay or gum disease
Abnormal jaw pain or pressure caused by crooked teeth
The desire for a healthier mouth and a more confident smile
