Orthodontics is becoming more popular among adults.
You can never be too old for orthodontic treatment. Adults now account for roughly one in every five orthodontic patients. This is why:
Good Appearance
Orthodontic treatment can help you correct crooked teeth or gaps that have been bothering you for years. It can provide you with the confidence and pride that comes with having straight teeth and a beautiful smile.
Your Teeth Can Move
Teeth continue to move, believe it or not. Teeth that appeared straight and aligned as a child may have shifted later in life. This can result in jaw pain, difficulty brushing, or an unsatisfactory smile.
Maintaining Good Oral Health
If you ignore misaligned teeth, you may develop other dental issues such as tooth decay and gum disease. You may also notice difficulty chewing or abnormal wear on your teeth.
