If you also think that “it is too late for me” although you want to have a perfect smile like many other people, then it is time to change your mind, because it is now possible in every age to have a healthy mouth type besides having aesthetical teeth with a nice smile by right diagnosis and treatment.
The Aim of Orthodontics
Orthodontics, primarily aiming to treat dental disorders is actually  divided into two sections. The first part involves the determination of probable dental disorders by regular controls in childhood years; the preparation of a treatment plan to prevent this disorder and its application. Hence, problems which may occur in adulthood are prevented with right applications. First controls begin in 7-8 years of age for any orthodontic treatment. Early controls or treatment if necessary lead to have a healthy maxillary structure, to have a proper dental order, to enable lip and tongue function better and to get rid of bad habits. However, early diagnosis and treatment are skipped most of the time. Therefore, individuals have some orthodontic problems when they become adults. And this is where the second section of orthodontic treatments start, which is to correct dental disorders still present. Quite successful orthodontic applications are conducted even in adults thanks to state-of-the-art technological treatment methods and a complete information. Therefore, it is never too late to have a brand new smile.
Negative results of Orthodontic disorders:
People who do not have any orthodontic treatment in their childhood or teenage years for some reason or another face many other problems in their adulthood. Here are some of them;
1. Aesthetic and psychological problems
2. Decays and colouring inner plates of the teeth
3. Gum bleeding, swelling, bruises or gum disease
4. Extreme dirt and difficulty to clean for not being able to brush due to curvatures
5. Halitosis
6. Rocking teeth or dental loss in later stages
Right Solution: Orthodontics in every age
Porcelain coatings are generally most preferred in order to get rid of the dental disorder in adults. However, porcelain coatings are not always the best solution as natural teeth must be protected in order to have a aesthetically perfect mouth and functionally healthy. Even  the most beautiful artificial teeth cannot do the same. Brackets should be used after such basic applications as fillings and palatal care in order to have a dental order and ideal smile. A right orthodontic treatment towards protecting natural teeth results in unusual outcomes no matter how old a patient is.

Clear Aligner
Thanks to Clear-Aligner technology, all crooked teeth can be corrected by invisible transparent plates without using brackets. These plate locks designed on a computer environment are set-up in 3 pieces for each month and are changed in 1- or 2- weeks for  desired ideal position. They are more advantageous as they can easily take out when eating, cleaned and not recognized in the mouth when compared to brackets.
