Adult Braces:

Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. One of every four patients in Dr. Bubon's practices is over 21! So adult treatment is much more common than it used to be. Plus, with clear braces and "invisible braces" [see www.Invisalign.com], adults no longer have to be concerned about the look of wearing traditional metal braces.

Many adults mistakenly are told that they need jaw surgery or teeth extracted in order to get their jaws aligned or teeth straightened. While it is true that the lack of ability to work with growth and developmen can lessen the number of treatment options for some adult patients, it is also true that there are modern methods for handling adult treatment that can prevent the need for extracting teeth or doing jaw surgery. Dr. Bubon has lectured to thousands of dentists and orthodontists about his non-extraction, non-surgical adult treatment methods.

The treatment was successful without extracting any teeth; note the nice wide smile she has! Smiles always look better when you have all your teeth!
