Great question, and you are absolutely not "too old" for braces! At Melanie Parker Orthodontics, nobody is “too old” for a new smile! In fact, we read a fascinating statistic not too long ago: adults getting braces has actually jumped 24 percent since 1996! Also, one of every five patients in orthodontic treatment nowadays is over the age of 21. Of course, braces help make your teeth stay strong, healthy and become perfectly-aligned. But we’d like you to know orthodontic treatment with Dr. Parker can be successful at any age, and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile.
In fact, we are proud to offer an adult-friendly option for straightening teeth called Invisalign, which uses a series of invisible, removable and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you're wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after.
If you’ve been thinking about getting that perfect smile, we would love to have you visit for a complimentary consultation at our San Diego office. Please give us a call to set one up and have a wonderful rest of the week!
