Questions and Answers

Question: I’ve always made the assumption that orthodontic care is for younger people. Can I still do something about my not-so-straight smile as an adult? Is there an age limit?

Answer: There is no upper age limit for orthodontics! If you are interested in aligning your smile, we absolutely recommend that you come see us for a consultation.

Question: I feel a little embarrassed because my smile isn’t all that bad but I really wish it looked more uniform. Is orthodontic care only for severe issues with misalignment or can you assist with cosmetic issues, too?

Answer: Orthodontics helps patients with all levels of needs. Whether you require help for a true misalignment or you simply wish your smile appeared straighter, we can help.

Question: What if I’ve already received orthodontic care in the past but my teeth have shifted out of alignment? Have I ruined my chance at having a nice looking smile?

Answer: It’s not too late! We can help you regain a beautifully aligned smile with an orthodontic care plan that’s tailored specifically to address your needs.
