Although the majority of orthodontic patients are children or adolescents, we regularly and successfully treat patients between the ages of 40 and 70. The oldest patient we ever treated was 81 years old ! The basic biological process by which teeth move is the same for all individuals, regardless of age.
In adults, in the absence of growth, it may sometimes be necessary to use different approaches or have different treatment objectives than in a growing population. The recent technologies that we have implemented in our practice in recent years are particularly well suited to adult treatment by making orthodontic treatments even more effective, accessible, comfortable and especially invisible . It is never too late to improve your teeth with orthodontics for aesthetic and even periodontal reasons: properly aligned teeth improve hygiene and prevent or stop the worsening of periodontitis.
