Is Orthodontic Treatment for Adults Different?

Orthodontic treatment in adults is effective, and is just as easy compared to younger patients. Adults have stopped growing, and this may cause the treatment to be slightly longer, but will still be highly effective. Adults may have fillings or other issues that could affect treatment, but most of these we can work around.

If patients smoke or grind their teeth this can also affect how the treatment works. At Maxwello Dental, we work to provide a comprehensive consultation for adults looking for orthodontic treatment in Pearland, Texas. If required, we may refer patients to specialists depending on the condition of the teeth to ensure our treatment plan meets each patient’s needs.
