Orthodontics

It is never too late or too early to think about orthodontics. Orthodontic treatment can be started on certain type of tooth problems before all permanent teeth have erupted. Early treatment, usually begun after the four permanent upper and lower front tooth have erupted. Today, more than 30% of orthodontic patients are over 18 years old. Crooked teeth, improper bite, overcrowding and “buck teeth” are now being corrected in many people regardless of age. The major difference between child and adult orthodontic treatment is the adult bones are no longer growing. This means that it may take a little longer for adult teeth to move into their correct position.
