Treatments
Adult Braces
While traditional metal braces are still used to straighten teeth, modern braces are far more advanced. Technology advancements in orthodontics have made braces more comfortable and less noticeable with proven results.
How long does the treatment take?
The average treatment time for adult braces is 12 to 18 months. Every person has different needs, so this will always vary.
Should I have braces?
A variety of reasons can lead to people needing braces at any age. They may need orthodontic treatment or they might just wish to have a perfectly straight smile if their teeth aren’t naturally straight. If you have any of the following problems, you may want to consider braces:
There may be crooked/crowded teeth, spacing between teeth, an underbite or overbite, a crossbite, or an incorrectly positioned jaw. Braces not only correct the position of the teeth, but also improve the overall health of the mouth, regardless of whether they are recommended to correct structural issues or improve aesthetics.
How much does braces treatment cost?
The cost for adult braces ranges from $8250 for single arch treatment and $10250 for double arch. This includes the retainers at the end of your treatment.
