Orthodontics for Adults and Children

Published on:2018-4-12

    Everyone, regardless of age, is possible to face issue of teeth misalignment, which will negatively affect both mastication and pronunciation. Besides, it will also cause change on one’s facial profile and to some extent shadow on one’s psychological health. That’s why orthodontic treatment is necessary. 

    Actually the orthodontic technique for adults differs from that of children, due to their differences in how long the teeth have misaligned, how fast the teeth move and how healthy the oral condition is. 



    Compared with children, adults have reached full growth, resulting in a slower speed of teeth shifting. Thus it takes a longer time to complete the whole orthodontic procedure for adults than that for children. 

    As for adults, the teeth have been misaligned for quite a long time, raising difficulty of the procedure. In order to achieve a good result, a much more advanced technique should be applied. 

    In addition, adults have built up their own network of life and business, so more factors should be taken into consideration when they are seeking orthodontics, including whether the treatment will take a toll on their appearance as well as business. There is no denying that invisible orthodontics is more appropriate for adults. 

    The orthodontic technique varies from children to adults, depending on both the difficulty of treatment and the specific need of patients. To be noted, it’d better seek timely treatment for teeth misalignment, in that the treatment will be much more difficult to conduct as the problem gets deteriorated.
