HELP!! Can an adult still have braces?

This is a question we are often asked in practice & the answer is YES, you can still have braces to straighten your teeth as an adult!

As long as your gums & teeth are healthy there is no reason why we cannot look at solutions to straighten your smile.

Our teeth can start to look a little out of line in adulthood even if we have had braces as teenagers. This can happen in our twenties or become more noticeable in our fifties, but age is not a barrier to straighter teeth.

Often the best treatment to create that perfect smile is to have adult orthodontics.

This often conjures up an image of metal brackets stuck all over your teeth acting as a spinach trap! Not really the look many of us want in our jobs or socially.

But Braces have moved on a long way since the 1980’s! Below are a list of the most common questions we are often asked during our free ortho consults:-

The answer to all of these is YES.
