4 Ways Adults Can Benefit from Orthodontic Treatment

Just because you missed out on orthodontics as a teen doesn’t mean you can’t benefit from this treatment in your adult years. At SV Orthodontics, we offer an array of adult orthodontic treatments, including Invisalign and Gold Iconix and clear ceramic braces. You can learn more about orthodontics for adults from Drs. Raman Samra and Elise Vincelette in Toronto, Ontario. Through adult orthodontic treatment, you can achieve the straight, healthy smile of your dreams.  

But esthetics alone isn’t the only reason for straightening your teeth in your adult years. Orthodontics can improve the function, health and quality of your smile for the future. Below are some additional ways you can benefit from having adult orthodontic treatment.

1. Better Oral Health

Teeth that are crooked, overlapping, or crowded are difficult to clean, making it easy for plaque and bacteria to breed, putting you at greater risk of cavities and gum disease. By straightening crooked teeth and correcting problems with overcrowding, Drs. Samra and Vincelette facilitate oral hygiene so you can keep your teeth strong and healthy. Straightening your smile can result in fewer dental issues and better oral health.

2. Improved Tooth Functionality

Through adult orthodontic treatment, your Toronto orthodontists at SV Orthodontics can correct bite issues that impair chewing due to your teeth not aligning as they should. A misaligned bite can also cause your teeth to wear down prematurely. Orthodontic treatment can align your upper and lower teeth so that they come together evenly when you close your mouth. This can greatly improve your ability to bite and chew so that you can eat all kinds of foods.    

3. Improved Digestion/More Nutritional Value from Your Food  

Digestion improves when you can properly chew your food. With strong, straight teeth, you’ll find it easier to eat and digest a wider variety of foods. You’ll also get more nutritional value from the foods you eat, which can lead to improved health, strength, and vitality.   

4. Greater Confidence and Self-Esteem

Problems with your teeth can make you feel uncomfortable about your appearance. You may smile less often or spend less time with others due to feeling self-conscious. After years of living with crooked teeth, orthodontic treatment can change your life dramatically. Improving your smile will not only bring greater joy to your life but will also boost your confidence and self-esteem, giving you a more positive outlook for the future.
