Orthodontic Treatment for Adults
Adults continue to seek orthodontic treatment in record numbers, and the team at Frugé Orthodontics is excited to offer a full range of treatment options for our adult patients in the greater Baton Rouge LA area. Finding the right orthodontist as an adult can feel like a daunting task, but our team is here to help make your entire treatment process as stress-free as possible.
Why more and more adults are opting for orthodontic treatment
Yes, it may be more common for children and adolescents to undergo treatment from an orthodontist, but it is just as effective for older aged patients. Because of this, more and more adults are choosing to receive treatment. Even as an adult, it is possible to correct teeth misalignment, over and underbites, and other common orthodontic issues.
As we get older, misaligned teeth can begin to cause more serious problems. Visiting your orthodontist in adulthood can help you avoid serious issues such as gum disease, tooth decay, increased difficulty with chewing, and a decrease in tooth enamel.
Now is a perfect time to look into whether orthodontic treatment is right for you! With today's aligners, clear braces, and other less obtrusive options, having braces as an adult is easier than ever. Don't think that your chances for a perfect smile and properly aligned teeth are behind you, orthodontic treatment can be effective at almost any age.
