Believe it or not, adults make up a large part of the population that’s in need of orthodontic treatment to correct misaligned teeth. Although the benefits of straighter teeth include a healthier mouth, the most obvious benefit is a more aesthetically pleasing smile. Most patients needing orthodontic treatment generally are more likely to suffer from or develop periodontal disease, TMJ disorders, chronic headaches, and body pain. All of this can be avoided with simple orthodontic treatment. So, why do patients avoid it?
Unfortunately, many adults don’t want to be associated with the immature stigma that comes with metal braces for years while their teeth straighten into their correct positions. That’s why Cherry Dental offers Invisalign in Long Beach, or short-term orthodontics that practically nobody can tell you’re wearing!
