There’s so many great reasons to undergo orthodontic treatment, or, to even come in and meet with our orthodontist(s) for an initial evaluation!

6 Great Reasons Why Adults Should Get Braces

1. Every smile is important: imagine how your life could be if you had a smile you were proud of!
2. Teeth can move at any age: even if you had braces in the past, you may need them again.
3. To avoid serious problems with their teeth and mouth: misaligned teeth can contribute to things like plaque, periodontal disease, tooth decay, gum and bone loss, wear of tooth enamel, and/pr TMJ/TMD pain.
4. Avoid health issues: not correcting your teeth can also lead to other issues like headaches, ear pain, and stomach issues.
5. Braces today are better, cheaper, and less noticeable: braces have come a long, lighter, more comfortable, cheaper, and less noticeable way with systems like ceramic braces and Invisalign.
6. Now you can afford them: when you were a child maybe your parents couldn’t afford braces, come explore our payment plans here at Orthodontic Excellence.
