It
is common these days to see quite a few adults wearing orthodontic braces. This
is indeed a growing trend - Our Apex and Cary orthodontics office is treating a
growing number of adults who wish to take advantage of the many benefits gained
from orthodontics.
Our
team at Spielberg Orthodontics expects this trend to continue as more adults
become aware of modern orthodontic treatment such as cosmetically aesthetic
braces and gentler wires. Age is not a factor in determining who can wear
braces and it is never too late to perfect your smile! Today, adults make up
nearly half of orthodontic patients hoping to finally obtain the perfect smile
they have always dreamed of.
Braces
have evolved considerably over the past few years - today there are several
cosmetically appealing options available. The brackets being used on modern
metal braces are smaller and more comfortable and the bonded brackets used on
clear braces are much less conspicuous.
Orthodontic
treatment at a later stage in life can dramatically improve your appearance and
self-esteem. Improving the health of your teeth and gums is just as important.
Crooked teeth and a poor bite can contribute to gum and bone loss, tooth decay,
abnormal wear of the tooth enamel and surfaces, headaches and jaw joint pain.
Braces
for Adults Offered by Spielberg Orthodontics The new
techniques and appliances we use reduce discomfort levels and cut down on the
number of office visits which must be maintained. Today adults are enjoying
shortened treatment times and are given several options from which to choose.
These options may include metal braces, translucent braces or translucent
aligners which can be worn at night to improve mild cases of misaligned teeth.
At
Spielberg Orthodontics, we are proud to offer Damon Q braces. These braces
consist of the all new, all metal, self-ligating system that goes above and
beyond to increase comfort and reduce treatment time while straightening your
teeth. The brackets used on Damon Q braces are made of high-grade stainless
steel which are smooth with rounded corners to provide comfort and to appear
less noticeable than normal Damon braces.
The
virtually invisible Damon Clear braces we use consist of a passive
self-ligating bracket whose beauty is more than skin deep. The self-ligating
brackets used in Damon Clear are strong, comfortable and low profile in nature.
The polycrystalline alumina material is resistant to staining from coffee, red
wine and other agents.
When
you schedule an initial examination with us, we will be able to determine which
treatment option is best for you based on the results of the exam. During this
first visit we can outline a treatment plan for you and tell you what the
duration of the treatment will be as well as the approximate cost.
