Adult Orthodontic Treatments In Lincoln, California
Braces aren’t only for kids any longer. Tooth alignment could be altered at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. Dr. Larson, our board-certified orthodontist in Lincoln, California offers a wide array of orthodontics that are developed for different age groups– including adults. Your new smile can begin today!]
Adult braces and orthodontic therapy at later periods in life can dramatically improve your personal appeal and self-esteem. Enhancing the health of your teeth and gums is equally important. Misaligned teeth and a bad bite can contribute to gum tissue and bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of the tooth enamel and surfaces, migraines, and jaw joint (TMJ/TMD) pain.
Good news! The brand-new procedures and appliances we use greatly decrease discomfort degrees, decrease the frequency of visits to our New Lincoln orthodontics office, reduce treatment time, and can allow you to choose from several types of adult braces. Your orthodontic treatment choices can feature metal braces, clear dental braces, or clear aligners that could be used in the evening to improve moderate cases of misaligned teeth.
During your complimentary, no-obligation New Patient Evaluation, we will be able to identify the best feasible kind of adult braces and orthodontics for your specific orthodontic requirements. During this preliminary evaluation, we can outline your orthodontic treatment strategy, your projected time in dental braces, and the approximate cost of your adult dental braces.

Types of Adult Braces
Aesthetics is among the major factors to consider when it comes to selecting braces for adults. The following types of braces are some of the common choices many adults choose for their teeth alignment.
Aligners
Aligners are typically clear trays that dentists switch out after every 2 weeks to readjust the teeth movement. Clients have to wear them for at least 20 to 22 hrs a day and can remove them for taking meals or brushing teeth. Invisalign is one of the most common brands of aligners.
Aligners consist of composite components and are much less noticeable. However, they are not invisible. They require proper cleaning and a timely changing schedule. Delays in changing out trays may lead to various other problems.
Conventional Dental Braces
There is a huge distinction between the old type of dental braces and modern dental braces. Today, you do not need to band metal around every single tooth. All it needs to hold to wires with a single bracket cemented on the front row of teeth. There are a few metal bands at the back of the teeth to secure these wires.
The only downside these dental braces have is that they are visible even if you choose the ceramic option.
Self-Ligating Braces
These dental braces pass the wires via a small metal clip. With self-ligating dental braces, you do not need elastic bands to move the teeth position.
Adult Lingual Braces
It is another great option for adults who are seeking effective and unnoticeable braces. Lingual dental braces are more like traditional braces. The only difference is that these braces are at the backside of teeth. The feature that makes lingual braces stand apart among other kinds of braces is their virtual invisibility. They make the ideal alternative for the people who are conscious about their looks and appearance.
