It's never too late for you
Today, one in five orthodontic patients is an adult. The American Association of Orthodontists estimates that nearly 1,000,000 adults in the United States and Canada are receiving treatment from an orthodontist. Many orthodontic problems can be corrected as well for adults as for children. That's because orthodontic forces move teeth the same way for a 40-year-old adult and a 10-year-old child. Dr. Roger B. Elton is a highly trained orthodontist with over two decades of experience who can help you achieve the straight, beautiful and confident smile you want. Dr. Elton offers several esthetically acceptable appliances for adults and will recommend the best option for your individual condition. Some of these include:
INVISALIGN®
Invisalign is a state-of-the-art alternative to traditional braces that can give you a straighter smile without metal wires or brackets. And Dr. Elton is proud to offer these orthodontic revolutions. With Invisalign, a series of clear, removable, custom-made aligners gradually move your teeth just like braces do. Invisalign can benefit both mature teens and adults and can address a variety of problems, including:
- Teeth crowding
- Crooked teeth
- Gaps
- Overbite, deepbite and buckteeth
- Space closure
- Relapse of previous orthodontic treatment
With Invisalign, there are no metal brackets or wires, and you can remove your aligners whenever you eat, drink, brush or floss.
BRACES WITH YOUR COSMETIC CONCERNS IN MIND
Dr. Elton knows that although you want a straighter smile, you might be avoiding braces because you don't want the appearance of metal braces on your teeth. Fortunately, he offers cosmetic-clear braces that can achieve excellent results and function in the same way as traditional "metal-looking" braces.
Remember, it's never too late to get the smile of your dreams. Call and schedule your appointment with Dr. Elton today!
