What is Orthodontics for Adults?

Adult orthodontic treatments are slightly different than a child treatment or orthodontics for teens. Adults’ bones are fully grown, and so denser and less flexible. This means treatment times may take longer or may require a combination of treatments to reach the desired goal.

For example, if teeth are very crowded it may be beneficial to extract a tooth to increase the space, and then align the remaining teeth. This might be preferable to oral surgery to expand the upper palate to make room for teeth. Each patient is unique and it is best to come for an assessment so we can determine the treatments that would be best suited to your situation.

Orthodontic Treatments for Adults

We embrace the latest advancements to provide you with treatments that are efficient and effective without interfering too much into your daily life.

The following are some of the orthodontic treatments that adults prefer:

CERAMIC OR CLEAR BRACES

Using the same system of brackets and archwires as traditional braces, you will get great results but with a more discreet look since the colour of the brackets are close to the colour of natural teeth.

Some patients prefer the ceramic material because it may be less abrasive to the movement of the cheeks and tongue.

LIGHTFORCE BRACES

An intraoral scanner to create a digital representation of your teeth will be used to custom fit and create your braces. Many patients report these braces are very comfortable and the brackets are extremely low profile.

INVISALIGN® CLEAR ALIGNERS

Clear aligner trays gently move teeth into position without wires and brackets, and are ideal for patients with a variety of misaligned teeth.

And if you’ve been told in the past that you are not a candidate for Invisalign, come to Allstar Orthodontics for a second opinion. With our Orthodontist’s experience and expertise, we can often treat more complex cases with Invisalign clear aligners.
