Many patients desire a straighter smile for aesthetic purposes. Orthodontics can straighten crooked or overcrowded smiles making them more symmetrical. However, this isn’t the only benefit of orthodontic treatments. Straight teeth can have functional benefits for your smile as well as overall health benefits. Straight teeth remove any hard-to-reach places, making brushing and flossing easier and reducing the risk of forming decay or further damage. There will also be a reduced amount of uneven wearing down which can create cracks or chips in weakened teeth.
How Long Do Braces Take?
Your individual treatment time will always be dependent on your individual condition.
The best way to find out how long your treatment will take is to come in for an assessment by our dentists. We will assess your condition and speak to you about your treatment options as well as recommend the best treatment for you.
At What Age Should People Get Braces?
Orthodontic treatment was traditionally performed on children and teenagers. While this is still the best time to identify and treat these issues, we now treat people of all ages and find that adult orthodontics is rapidly growing in popularity. Many adults have always wanted straight teeth but feel that they “missed out” when they were younger. The good news is it’s never too late for straight and beautiful teeth with Gold Coast, Brisbane and Pottsville orthodontics.
