Orthodontic Options For Adults – Your Options For A Straighter Smile

If you’re an adult and you’re unhappy with your smile due to issues with your bite or the alignment of your teeth, you may think it’s too late to correct your smile with orthodontic treatment.

But that’s not the case. At Kingstowne Dental Specialists, we offer orthodontics for patients of all ages. No matter how old you are, Dr. Robert Marzban can help you get the smile you’ve always wanted in Alexandria. Read on, and learn more about our orthodontic options for adults. 

Orthodontics Can Help Patients Of All Ages – It’s Not Just For Kids! 

Most patients get orthodontic treatment during the teen years. At this time, the jaws are still growing, but the adult teeth have all emerged, so it’s easy to reposition the teeth and make adjustments to the position of the jaw.

But adults of all ages can still benefit from orthodontics later in life. Whether you have minor orthodontic problems, or you have a serious overbite, underbite, or another such issue with your jaw position, Dr. Robert Marzban can help you choose the treatment that’s right for you. He can develop an orthodontic plan that will provide you with the smile you deserve. Let’s take a look at a few of our treatment options for adults now. 

Expedited Braces

Expedited braces are ideal for patients who have minor issues with the alignment of their front teeth. Using a special system of tooth-colored braces, Dr. Marzban can bring your teeth into alignment in less than six months, and provide you with the smile you’ve always wanted.

Invisalign

Invisalign is ideal for older adults who wish to correct their smile and bite without the social stigma of wearing braces. This method of orthodontic correction uses clear plastic “aligners,” which look similar to a retainer or a night guard for teeth grinding.

These aligners are completely invisible when worn and do not affect speech. They’re also removable, so there are no dietary restrictions, and you can brush and floss more easily.

Traditional Metal Braces

Traditional metal braces are a cost-effective way to correct your smile if you have major orthodontic issues. Along with orthodontic surgery, metal braces can be used to correct even the most serious teeth and jaw alignment issues, and provide you with a healthier, more beautiful smile.

Cosmetic Ceramic Braces 

Ceramic braces use tooth-colored brackets and wires, as well as transparent elastics. Because of this, they blend in with your teeth more effectively than metal braces, while still maintaining the same ability to correct the position of your jaws and teeth. If you need braces but wish to avoid the appearance of traditional metal braces, ceramic braces are a great alternative.
