Millions of people in the United States and Canada are currently being treated by members of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO).\u00a0 One in five\u00a0patients is an adult. <\/b><\/p>\n

Orthodontic treatment moves teeth in the same way for a 75-year old as it does for a 13-year old.\u00a0 Dr. Jorge C. Coro and Dr. Ivette M. Coro remind those considering orthodontic treatment that healthy teeth can be moved\u00a0at any age!<\/p>\n

\u201cAdults need not shy away from treatment because of their age,\u201d says Dr. Jorge C. Coro.\u00a0 \u201cIf an adult is self-conscious about their smile or teeth have shifted after having braces as a child, orthodontic treatment can provide them with the same benefits younger patients enjoy.\u00a0 Less visible orthodontic materials have made adult orthodontic treatment increasingly popular in recent years.\u00a0 Some malocclusions\/bad bites may even get worse if left untreated.\u201d \u00a0 According to a survey by the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO), adult patients grew by 14% from 2010 to 2012.<\/p>\n

If treatment is recommended, there are a number of options available today that make it less noticeable than it was in the past. \u201cThanks to today\u2019s technology, the materials we orthodontists use to move teeth can be almost imperceptible,\u201d notes Dr. Ivette M. Coro.\u00a0 As specialists, orthodontists are able to use a full array of \u201cappliances\u201d to create a healthy and beautiful smile.\u00a0 These include traditional metal braces with small, sleek brackets and thin wires; ceramic or tooth-colored braces; and clear aligners such as Invisalign. \u00a0 Also owning to improved technology, the average time between orthodontic appointments is about six weeks, so adults miss less time from work and other important commitments.<\/p>\n

Teeth are constantly moving throughout our lifetime and tend to crowd as we age.\u00a0 It is never too late to restore that beautiful, youthful smile!<\/p>\n

\u201cA smile is the boldest statement you can make without saying a word.\u201d<\/p>\n
