Do you worry that you are too old to straighten your teeth? You are never too old for orthodontics! In fact, about 25% of orthodontic patients are adults. A straight, healthy, and beautiful smile is within your reach — no matter your age! Our orthodontist offers a variety of orthodontic treatment options, and we are happy to help you find the one that matches your personal needs. In addition to traditional metal braces, more discreet treatment options are available, so you can maintain a natural, professional appearance while you straighten your teeth. During your initial visit with Dr. Joseph Basile, we review all of your treatment options and help you choose the one you need for optimal results.
Most patients understand that a straighter smile is more esthetically pleasing; however, not everyone knows that properly aligned teeth can help improve your oral health and function as well. Orthodontic treatment helps you avoid severe tooth decay, gum and bone loss, TMJ/TMD pain, and irregular wear of the tooth enamel. To learn more about the benefits of adult orthodontic treatment, we welcome you to call for an orthodontic consultation today.
At Prior Lake Orthodontics, treatment time varies significantly between patients. Adult treatment general takes a little longer than a child’s treatment. Dr. Basile is pleased to provide adult orthodontics in Minnesota. Because adult facial bones are no longer growing, certain corrections may not be accomplished with braces alone. We invite you to call our Prior Lake office today at 952-447-6088 to set up a complimentary consultation with our orthodontist. We will start you on your path towards improve oral health and a beautiful smile.
