No matter your age, we’re here to help you achieve a healthier, more confident smile!
Are Braces an Option for Me?
Absolutely! It’s never too late to transform your smile. Many people associate braces with childhood or adolescence, but modern orthodontic advancements have made braces an excellent option for adults of all ages. Every year, more adults in their twenties, thirties, forties, and beyond choose to improve their smiles with braces.
If you’re unsure whether braces are right for you, here are some common signs that adult orthodontic treatment may be beneficial:
✔ Gaps or uneven spacing between teeth
✔ Crowded or misaligned teeth
✔ Jaw discomfort or bite issues (overbite, underbite, crossbite)
✔ Difficulty chewing or speaking clearly
If any of these sound familiar, Dr. Bullen and Dr. Beckstrand can evaluate your smile and recommend the best treatment plan for you!
How Do Braces Work?
Once we’ve completed a comprehensive evaluation, we’ll discuss the different types of braces available to suit your needs and lifestyle. We offer multiple treatment options, including:
Traditional Metal Braces
These stainless steel brackets are highly effective for correcting even the most complex orthodontic cases. While they’re the classic choice for braces, today’s metal brackets are sleeker, smaller, and more comfortable than ever before.
Clear Ceramic Braces
Designed to blend in with your natural smile, ceramic braces offer the same great results as metal braces but with a more discreet appearance. They’re a great option for adults who want a more subtle orthodontic solution.
Why Get Braces as an Adult?
We understand that the idea of getting braces as an adult can feel intimidating—but the benefits far outweigh the temporary inconvenience! Investing in your oral health and confidence is always worthwhile. Here’s why:
✔ Boosted Self-Confidence – A straight, beautiful smile can make a huge difference in your personal and professional life.
✔ Improved Oral Health – Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues.
✔ Better Bite & Comfort – Addressing bite misalignment can help prevent jaw pain, headaches, and uneven tooth wear.
