Braces aren’t just for kids anymore. Tooth alignment can be changed at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed for different age groups – including adults. A lifetime of beautiful smiles can begin today.
Orthodontic treatment at later stages in life can dramatically improve your personal appearance and self-esteem. Improving the health of your teeth and gums is equally important. Crooked teeth and a bad bite can contribute to gum and bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of the tooth enamel and surfaces, headaches, disfunction and jaw joint (TMJ/TMD) pain.
Good news! The new techniques and appliances we use greatly reduce discomfort levels, decrease the frequency of visits, shorten treatment time and may allow you to choose from several options. Your options may include metal braces, translucent braces or transparent aligners that can improve mild cases of misaligned teeth.
During the initial examination, we will be able to determine the best possible treatment for your individual needs. Dr. Tipton will outline your personalized treatment plan and answer all of your questions. We will also discuss length of treatment expected, amount of investment, and individual payment plan.
A large percentage of our patients are adults; we even have a private adult treatment room if you prefer. Our adult patients agree that it’s never too late to improve their greatest asset - their smile.
