Why More Adults Are Choosing Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment is no longer associated solely with teenagers. Thousands of adults in the UK are now opting to straighten their smiles, driven by both aesthetic and functional motivations.

Common reasons adults seek orthodontic care include:
  • Crooked, crowded, or overlapping teeth

  • Gaps or spacing issues

  • Bite concerns such as overbite, underbite, open bite, or crossbite

  • Bite concerns such as overbite, underbite, open bite, or crossbite

  • Shifting teeth due to ageing or gum disease

  • Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment

  • Difficulty maintaining oral hygiene due to misalignment

  • Jaw discomfort or headaches caused by malocclusion

  • Desire for improved confidence in professional and social settings

Whatever your reasons, our team provides comprehensive guidance and tailored treatment plans that align with your goals.

    Frequently asked questions about Adult orthodontics at FreshDental

    Am I too old to get braces or Invisalign?

    Not at all. Orthodontic treatment is suitable for adults of any age as long as the teeth and gums are healthy. Whether you prefer discreet aligners or fixed braces, our specialist orthodontist can create a tailored plan that suits your goals and lifestyle.

    How long does adult orthodontic treatment take?

    Treatment duration varies depending on the complexity of your case. Mild alignment issues may take as little as a few months, while more complex treatments typically take 12–24 months. Your exact timeline will be discussed during your consultation.

    How often will I need appointments?

    Appointments are typically every 6–10 weeks. Invisalign may require fewer visits, while fixed braces usually involve regular adjustments. We will schedule these around your routine to minimise disruption.

    Can orthodontic treatment fix bite problems?

    Yes. Adult orthodontics can correct issues such as overbites, underbites, open bites and crossbites. Correcting your bite can improve function, reduce jaw strain and protect your teeth long term.

    Is orthodontic treatment painful?

    You may experience mild pressure or discomfort when braces are fitted or aligners are changed, but this usually settles quickly. Modern orthodontic techniques prioritise comfort and use gentle, controlled forces to move the teeth.
