We know that orthodontics can improve your smile and bite, regardless of your age. Many of our adult patients live under the impression that they cannot straighten their teeth or that the process will take a long time. This is often due to an appointment as a child where they were told that they would need to wear braces for three to four years. In the past, it could indeed take three to four years to straighten teeth that were severely crooked. Most people do not want to go through a treatment process that is so lengthy, and we understand this. Fortunately, times have changed. It no longer takes this long to straighten teeth, and most people can complete their procedure in 18 months. This is excellent news for adults who long for a beautiful smile, but also need the process to be convenient along the way. Our solutions are diverse. We focus on providing solutions that work now and in the future. When you visit our Boca Raton office, we will discuss all possible options.
