Why Adult Braces Are Making a Comeback

Braces & Aligners

Often one of the most cringe-worthy things we can do is look back at our old photos. From hairstyles that should remain in the ‘80s to clothing that makes you question your younger self’s sensibilities, there are many qualities you may regret. For some of us, though, the problem of crooked or missing teeth might remain.

But fear not! Adult braces are more socially acceptable than ever and can lead to more confidence and a happier outlook.

With recent improvements in orthodontic technology and the ever-lower cost of getting braces, more adults than ever are choosing to return to the orthodontist’s chair and have their teeth fixed. In the last 30 years, we have made incredible strides in orthodontics that make getting adult braces a more comfortable and convenient experience than ever before.

Adult Braces & Aligners Are More Cost-Effective Than Ever!

Braces used to be an option reserved for those with the ability to pay for it. Just think about the headgear that some used to need, only to move just a few teeth. But the days of expensive contraptions for fixing teeth are gone, and the cost of adult braces is lower than ever. The new methods for fixing crooked and missing teeth are less invasive than ever before. Some braces can even be applied to the back of your teeth for a subtler look. In fact, newer alternatives, such as Invisalign, offer many options encouraging people to get their teeth fixed; gone are the days that adult braces have to be unsightly or expensive to the extent that the stigma outweighs the benefit.

Today, these new options that are giving adults the confidence they never had. Some studies even suggest that orthodontic procedures can inspire people to take better care of their teeth in the long run.
