Reasons for Adult Orthodontics

Find out why more adults are choosing to straighten their smiles.

Orthodontics aren’t just for kids. More and more adults are turning to Dr. Thu Hoang and Dr. Zachary Fried thanks to more discreet and attractive orthodontic options such as Invisalign in Newton, MA. Here are some of the top reasons adults turn to us for orthodontics, and why you might want to, as well!

Reduce Risk for Decay

As you might imagine, when teeth are straight they are much easier to keep clean. Food and plaque can easily get trapped when teeth are crooked and out of alignment. By getting a straighter smile through orthodontic treatment, it will be far easier for your toothbrush and floss to get into all those spaces to offer you a better clean for a healthier, cavity-free smile.

Improve Bite Function

When teeth or jaws are out of alignment, certain teeth will have to take on more pressure than others. Over time, this can put excessive wear and tear on these teeth, which can weaken them and eventually lead to fracturing and cracks. Getting a straighter smile can prevent damage to teeth and improve the function and strength of your bite as a whole.

Alleviate or Prevent Pain

When teeth and jaws are not properly aligned, this can also lead to tension headaches and jaw pain caused by TMJ disorder. Whether you are dealing with these issues right now or you would like to prevent these issues from happening, turn to your dental team for orthodontics.
