Many adults are now seeking orthodontic treatment, either as part of a comprehensive course of dental treatment or for cosmetic reasons. Regardless of the reason, orthodontic treatment for adults is much more commonplace and acceptable, due in part to technological advances such as Nickel-Titanium archwires and clear, almost invisible, self-ligating braces. An initial evaluation will help clarify a patient's orthodontic needs and whether orthodontic treatment is advisable.

Speaking of Invisible…

Invisalign Treatment
One of the major advances in orthodontics has been the introduction of Invisalign Treatment, which enables many adults to undergo orthodontic treatment without having to wear "braces." Many adults who previously avoided treatment are now having their smiles improved by this revolutionary new process. The clear aligners are comfortable, easy to use, and are almost undetectable.

Anyone 14 years or older is a potential candidate for Invisalign treatment. Ask Dr. Persichetti, who was amongst the very first group of orthodontists to be educated and certified as an Align practitioner, if Invisaligner Treatment is a viable option for your orthodontic treatment.
