Our orthodontist, Dr. Marc S. Wright, offers adult braces and other orthodontic treatments for residents in Atlanta, Marietta and surrounding areas of Georgia.

What Are Adult Braces?

If you are over 18 years old and considering braces, you are not alone. Wright Orthodontics has seen significant growth in this area of orthodontic treatment. In the past, braces were most often recommended for teenagers, leading many adults to believe that it was too late to remedy problems with their teeth and jaw alignment. Today, adults have several options that allow them to have the orthodontic treatment they need without sacrificing appearance in social and professional situations.
