Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. One in every five patients undergoing orthodontic treatment is over 21. Although jaw surgery is more often required for adult orthodontic patients because their jaws are not growing, traditional orthodontic treatment options remain. As with any patient who has experienced some breakdown of their teeth or loss of bone that supports the teeth, you may require periodontal treatment before, during, and/or after orthodontic treatment.
