Do you think that your age is an obstacle to fixing your smile? Adult orthodontics eliminates this common misconception. Today, many adults get the smile of their dreams by resorting to orthodontic treatment for various reasons. So, why has adult orthodontics become so popular and what can it offer you?

The Rise of Adult Orthodontics: Why More Adults Are Getting Treatments

In the past, orthodontic treatment was often associated with childhood and adolescence. But with the development of modern orthodontic techniques and aesthetic options, the treatment options for adults have expanded considerably. With many motivations, such as being more competitive in business, gaining self-confidence in social relationships or finding solutions to chewing problems that have been going on for years, adults knock on the door of the orthodontic clinic. Today's aesthetic expectations also play a big role in this increase; a flawless smile is no longer just the dream of young people. In addition, with the increase in general health awareness, adults who want to prevent problems such as gum disease and jaw joint problems that can lead to crooked teeth also see orthodontic treatment as a solution.

Orthodontic Treatment Options for Adults: Transparent Plaques and Lingual Wires

One of the biggest concerns of adults is experiencing aesthetic concerns with traditional metal wires. Fortunately, today there are many alternatives that eliminate these concerns. Transparent plaques (aligners)are very popular among adults, thanks to the fact that they are almost invisible and can be attached and removed. The fact that they can be taken out while eating or at a special invitation ensures that it does not disrupt social life. Also, these plaques move the teeth gradually, and progress is clearly visible with each new set of plaques. Another aesthetic option lingual wires. These wires are completely invisible from the outside, as they are located on the inner surface of the teeth. They provide an aesthetic advantage while offering all the effectiveness of conventional strands. They can be an ideal option in cases where you do not want the appearance of brackets and wires, but are not suitable for transparent plaques. On the other hand, in some cases ceramic brackets may also be preferred; these are less noticeable than metal brackets because they are tooth colored.

Proper sorting of teeth significantly facilitates oral hygiene. Also, teeth with incorrect closure problems with chewing can cause, which can lead to digestive problems.
