Adult Orthodontics
Braces aren't just for teenagers; in fact, more adults now than ever have been taking advantage of the opportunity to receive orthodontic treatment. No matter what your age, you deserve to enjoy the benefits of a healthy, beautiful smile.
Why would I need orthodontic treatment as an adult?
There are several reasons why adults may consider orthodontic treatment. Many adult patients never received orthodontic care as a child, and now realize the importance of having a straight, healthy smile. Other reasons that adults just like you are considering treatment include:
- A bad bite causing teeth to be misaligned and fit together incorrectly
- Teeth that are crowded or spaced apart, which are hard to clean and can eventually lead to tooth decay and gum disease
- If there's a lot of pain or pressure in the jaw as a result of TMD (temporomandibular disorder)
- Wanting a healthier mouth and a more confident smile
Correcting your teeth and mouth with braces will not only help improve your smile, but will also drastically improve your overall oral health. Crooked and crowded teeth are harder to keep clean. Teeth and gums that are not properly taken care of can develop tooth decay and gum disease that will eventually lead to tooth loss.
I came to see Dr. Rosenberg upon the referral of a friend. I was 32 at the time and had just gotten engaged. It is very different to get braces as an adult. Throughout the entire process all of the staff, from the receptionists to the assistants, were wonderful. They were always polite and professional, but warm enough to be interested in what was going on with me. I would recommend Dr. Rosenberg's practice to anyone who is considering orthodontic work. It was a very positive experience."
