Benefits of braces in adults

1. Improve aesthetics, more confidence

Even teeth help create a harmonious smile and a more balanced face. Many adults choose braces to feel confident in communication, work and social relationships.

2. Improve chewing function

Misaligned bites not only affect aesthetics but also make chewing difficult, increasing the risk of tooth wear or temporomandibular joint pain. Braces help correct bite, chew well and protect teeth long term.

3. Reduce the risk of oral diseases

Misaligned, crowded teeth are difficult to clean, easily accumulate plaque, causing gingivitis and tooth decay. When teeth are arranged neatly, oral care becomes easier.

4. Long lasting effect

Unlike temporary cosmetic methods (porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns), braces directly affect the tooth structure, so they bring lasting results and limit recurrence.

Things to Consider Before Getting Braces as an Adult

1. Longer treatment time

Compared to children, braces for adults usually last 18-36 months because the jawbone has hardened. People with braces need to be patient and strictly follow the treatment regimen.

2. May require combination of supportive procedures

In some cases, adults with tooth loss, jaw bone loss or periodontal disease need implants, bone grafting or periodontal treatment before braces. This increases cost and time.

3. Aesthetic issues during braces

Traditional metal braces can be intimidating when communicating. However, there are now many options such as ceramic braces, clear braces or Invisalign to help adults feel more comfortable and confident.

4. Treatment costs

The cost of braces for adults ranges from 30 to 120 million VND depending on the method and condition of the teeth. This is an investment worth considering.

Which adults should get braces?

Adult braces are especially suitable for the following cases:

  • Protruding teeth, underbite, misaligned bite.
  • Gap teeth, crowded teeth.
  • People have difficulty chewing and are prone to tooth decay due to misaligned teeth.
  • People who want to improve their smile aesthetics to be more confident.

On the contrary, for people with severe periodontal disease, severe jaw bone loss or poor oral health, the doctor will need to consider carefully and come up with an appropriate treatment plan.

Popular braces options for adults

  • Metal braces: Highly effective, lower cost, but less aesthetic.
  • Ceramic braces: Less visible, suitable for working people.
  • Lingual braces: Attached to the inside of the teeth, maximum aesthetics but high cost.
  • Invisalign (clear braces): Clear, removable, highly aesthetic braces, suitable for busy adults.

Conclude

Adults can absolutely wear braces and achieve high efficiency if they choose the right method and are treated by an orthodontist. Braces not only bring a confident smile, but also help improve oral health and prevent many diseases.

Before making a decision, adults need to consider time, cost and oral health status. Go to a reputable dental facility for examination, X-ray and consultation on personalized treatment plan, from which to choose the most optimal solution.
