ORTHODONTICS FOR ADULTS

The good news for adults is even if you should have received orthodontic treatment as a child and
did not, it’s not too late to correct over crowding or over spacing in adult life.

Adults may wish to consider orthodontic treatment for a variety of reasons:

• correction of problems for which there was no suitable treatment for in childhood
• desire to improve smile by reduction of overcrowding
• desire to improve smile by closing of gaps between teeth
• facilitate other dental treatment required such as crown, bridge or implant work
• assist with the treatment of gum disease and prevention of early tooth loss
• new technology means treatment can take place without wires and brackets visible
