In our culture, braces were historically considered “kids stuff.” If a dentist discovered bite problems or permanent teeth came in noticeably crooked, junior went to the orthodontist and came home with metal bands, brackets and wires. He probably wore them for several years, and when they came off, had some cavities and enamel damage.
Many people near Freehold, New Jersey and throughout the nation believed that if they didn’t have teeth straightened by the time they were out of high school, it was too late. Today, we know that it is never too late to get an attractively even smile. In fact, adult patients now represent about half of Americans in some form of orthodontics. Adult orthodontics are not only okay, they are awesome!
Two primary factors have led to this revolution of straight smiles with adult orthodontics patients. First, we discovered the positive impact of a stunning smile on self-confidence, business success, dating and mating, and oral hygiene. We learned that straightening didn’t have to be driven by bite problems – it’s okay to straighten for cosmetic appeal and adult orthodontics can provide this.
Second, metal braces (especially for aesthetic straightening) paved the way for modern adult orthodontics options that are unobtrusive lightweight, and quicker.
