kingstowne Adult Orthodontics

Common Reasons

Adults Need Orthodontic Treatment

Adults typically need orthodontic treatment for the same reasons as children. The most common reasons for adult orthodontic treatment are issues like bad bites, jaw issues and crooked or crowded teeth. These issues can hinder your daily life and your confidence by making it difficult to chew and speak. With orthodontic treatment, you can get the straight, carefree smile you’ve always wanted!

Correcting Bad Bites

Orthodontics for Malocclusion

A bad bite, such as an overbite, underbite or crossbite, can negatively affect your appearance and self-image, and also lead to issues like premature tooth wear, discomfort when chewing or biting, speech problems, and more. With proper adult orthodontic treatment, Dr. Marzban can correct your bite position and give you relief from these symptoms.

Fixing TMJ & Jaw Issues

Get Relief from Jaw Pain

A poor bite can cause serious TMJ (temporomandibular joint) or jaw problems due to the uneven stress of biting and chewing. In turn, this can damage the delicate ligaments, tendons and joints of your jaw, leading to serious facial pain and discomfort, and even issues like jaw “locking” when chewing, or an inability to open your mouth all the way.

Restoring Crooked Or Crowded Teeth

Enhance Your Smile with Orthodontics

Crooked and crowded teeth can negatively affect your appearance and your self-esteem, and make it difficult to properly clean your teeth and care for your smile. Adult orthodontic treatment is the best way to straighten your teeth, restore your smile, and get a grin you can feel proud of.

Orthodontic Treatments for Adults

Know Your Options

At Kingstowne Dental Specialists, we offer a variety of different orthodontic treatment options for adults. For discreet orthodontic treatment, we offer  Six Month Smiles as well as clear aligners with Invisalign and 3M Clarity. 
‍
We also offer traditional metal braces and ceramic braces. These options are usually best for treating extensive jaw and bite issues, as well as extremely crooked or crowded teeth. Most adult patients opt for ceramic braces because they are tooth-colored and will not affect your appearance as much as traditional metal braces.
