A Beautiful Smile You Can Be Proud Of

Adult Orthodontics

It’s never too late to start your smile journey!

If you weren’t able to have orthodontic treatment as an adolescent, or if you have had treatment in the past only for your teeth to shift back out of their proper placement, you might be one of the many adults who are now seeking to transform their smiles.

Why Would An Adult Want Braces?

A straight, healthy smile isn’t just nice to look at, it’s an investment into your lifelong health! According to the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO), braces can help with the following and more: 

  • Maintaining good hygiene 
  • Improving biting and chewing ability 
  • Rectifying bite malocclusions 
  • Minimizing the risks and symptoms associated with TMJ or TMD-related issues
  • Improving self-confidence  

Benefiting your overall oral and physical health while also enjoying a beautiful, aligned smile? That seems like a pretty great deal to us! 

Am I Too Old For Braces?

It’s true that many orthodontic treatments are most popular with adolescents. Still, it’s a misconception that only children and teenagers can or want to straighten their smiles with braces. As a matter of fact, it’s never too late to realign your smile, and we highly encourage anyone considering starting their smile journey to visit our orthodontic office in Wichita, Kansas, for a complimentary consultation. 

Orthodontics is popular in teens and children because they are still growing, making it easier for their teeth to shift into their ideal positions. However, adult patients can still see miraculous results long after their teenage years have come and gone. No matter what age you are, you could be a great candidate for adult orthodontics treatment options. You only need to give us a call to start your smile journey today! 

What Orthodontic Treatments Are Available To Adults?

Many of our adult patients are primarily concerned with the appearance, comfort and maintenance of their orthodontic treatment. Thankfully, the days of bulky wires and clunky brackets are in the past, and orthodontic appliances like braces are more discreet, comfortable and effective than ever before. 

At Smiles Orthodontics in Wichita, Kansas, we also work hard to make sure your treatment is as smooth and stress-free as possible, including flexible payment plans and no interest payment options, meaning you can choose the orthodontic treatment option that works best for you.

Braces

If you have moderate or severe misalignments in your teeth or jaws, you can never go wrong with traditional metal braces. Far from the bulky gadgets of the past, modern wire braces are smaller, smoother and more effective than ever before. As a popular and affordable option for any individual looking to straighten their smile, these powerful orthodontic tools are a fantastic way to transform your smile. 

Invisalign®

Invisalign® and our In-House clear aligners are a leading choice for many adults looking to straighten their style. Fully removable and virtually undetectable, these aligners gently shift your teeth into place without any of the wires or brackets. With no brackets, food restrictions or regular dentist visits to tighten your wires, clear aligners are a powerful yet convenient way to fit orthodontic treatment into your busy lifestyle.

Ceramic Braces

For those patients who want the power of metal braces with the discreet appearance of clear aligners, ceramic braces are a fantastic option. Popular among adults and teens alike, these braces are made of a combination of metal and medical-grade plastic that blends in with the teeth, making them almost undetectable to fit your lifestyle needs.
