Am I Too Old for Braces?

Lets first answer the following question, what is the purpose of orthodontics? Well orthodontics is the treatment of irregularities in the alignment of the teeth, jaws, and ultimately the bite. So what are the benefits of treating those irregularities? Better alignment of the teeth and jaws can make it easier to keep your teeth clean, reduce wear and tear of your teeth, improve jaw function, make your bite more comfortable, improve the esthetics, increase confidence and self esteem, help alleviate jaw pain and discomfort, improve mastication and digestion, improve speech, etc. 

Is there an age at which someone should not enjoy these benefits?

To answer the original question, “Am I too old for braces?”, the answer is no. No one is too old for the benefits of braces and if braces aren’t your thing there are other treatment options available to you like Invisalign and InBrace that may fit your lifestyle better. So don’t hesitate to see your orthodontist for a consultation and see how you can benefit from orthodontic treatment.
