Orthodontics for Adults

Orthodontics isn’t just for kids and teenagers; many adults are seeking treatments to correct dental misalignments they’ve lived with for years. Advances in orthodontic technology have introduced discreet options, such as Invisalign® and clear ceramic braces, making it more convenient and aesthetically pleasing for adults to straighten their teeth. Undergoing orthodontic treatment in adulthood not only enhances smile aesthetics but also improves oral health by aligning the bite and making it easier to maintain dental hygiene. No matter the age, it’s never too late to achieve a confident and healthy smile.

Improved Oral Health

Misaligned teeth can create pockets where food particles and bacteria accumulate, leading to decay and gum disease. Straight teeth are easier to clean, which reduces the risk of these issues. Contact us today to learn more!

Adult Braces

If you reside in Brick Township and are pondering over getting braces as an adult, reach out to our orthodontic clinic, Imagination Orthodontics. We cater to the adult orthodontic needs of individuals across the locale. Adult braces operate similarly to those used by children, but often with more straightforward treatment plans since adult jaws are fully developed. At Imagination Orthodontics, our adult orthodontic solutions encompass both the traditional metal braces and the modern clear aligners. While traditional braces use metal brackets and wires affixed to the teeth to achieve alignment, clear aligners are transparent plastic trays worn for approximately 22 hours daily. They’re removed only during meals and oral hygiene routines. Both methods are effective in realigning teeth and enhancing smiles. Our expertise serves the Brick Township community in New Jersey. Regardless of the extent of misalignment, the foundational procedure remains consistent. The duration of the treatment and the most suitable orthodontic option will vary depending on individual requirements.

3-Steps to Transform Your Smile

  1. Make room for your teeth. Many people suffer from overcrowding in their lifetime. Overcrowding can occur when baby teeth fall out prematurely, and the remaining teeth shift out of place. Some people do not have enough space in their mouth to accommodate all of their teeth. We can use an expander to slowly push the teeth outward and broaden the palate. This way, there will be room for the adult teeth to move into position. The alternative involves having a professional pull a few teeth. To determine if an expander will work for you, call 732-795-6096 and schedule a consultation.
  2. Straighten teeth. Once there is enough room, the teeth can be guided into position. This can be done using metal braces or aligners. If you wear adult braces, a metal bracket will be placed onto each of your teeth with a wire threaded through them and secured in place by rubber bands. Adult braces are more comfortable and attractive than they used to be. Technological advancements have helped to create adult braces with smaller brackets and wires. On a regular basis, you will visit our orthodontist office to have the wire adjusted so that your teeth can continue moving as they should. We can tell you how long this portion of the treatment is likely to last.
  3. Bite alignment. Adult orthodontics is more than straightening teeth. It is also for aligning a patient’s bite. Many people suffer from an overbite, underbite or crossbite. We can correct these problems while you wear adult braces. By using headgear, rubber bands or alternative tools, we can gradually move your jaw into position to align your bite. Once the bite is aligned properly, you will be able to eat and speak more comfortably. This will work to improve your appearance and health at the same time.
