Adult orthodontic treatment

GENERAL:
Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age. In fact, about 25% of orthodontic patients today are adults. The biological process involved in children's tooth movement is the same for adults. The health of an individual's teeth, gums and supporting bone is what is most important in determining the prospects for improving an adult’s smile and dental health. Because an adult's facial bones are no longer growing, certain corrections cannot be accomplished with braces alone. However, very dramatic facial changes are now being achieved with a combined approach of surgery and orthodontics for individuals who elect to receive this type of treatment.

In our clinic we use the latest up to date and scientifically approved techniques which enable us to provide comfortable treatment and a state of the art final result.
