Braces are Not Only for the Young, but for the Young of Heart

Braces are often associated with the image of children getting their teeth fixed in middle or high school, trying to achieve their ideal self-image and impress their peers with their stunning smiles. It is common to hear people later in life claim they’re too old for braces. But contrary to popular belief, braces are not specific to one age group.

There is never a wrong time to work on boosting your self-confidence by taking care of your appearance and correcting things you may have felt self-conscious about your whole life. This can contribute to improving your overall mental health.

Invisalign®

For any patient that would prefer a subtler change in their smile, Wright Orthodontics offers Invisalign®. These invisible aligners can do just as much as braces without drawing the same amount of attention. Individually designed to fit your mouth, this product can correct overbites, underbites, crossbites, tooth gaps, and crooked teeth. It can also be taken out for eating and drinking, allowing your teeth to remain cleaner.

Most insurance policies cover Invisalign® and do not require patients to be a specific age to take advantage of their full benefits. The treatment process is simple, painless, and our office works to ensure your comfort is met every step of the way.

Image/Self-esteem

Invisalign® is only one of the many options we offer to help improve your overall self-image. We also provide tooth extraction and whitening for patients that may need it. We utilize the best of teeth whitening products with the Zoom!® WhiteSpeed Teeth Whitening System. The hour-long process is relatively short in comparison to others and can brighten your smile by up to eight shades.

Our staff understands that taking care of yourself applies to every age group, and we enjoy helping our patients boost their self-confidence. If you’re interested in feeling younger at heart and improving your overall well-being, please contact either our Marietta or Atlanta, Georgia office to schedule your appointment today.
