Think braces are just for teenagers? Think again. At Visage Orthodontics, we believe it’s never too late to achieve your dream smile. More adults than ever are exploring orthodontic treatments and transforming their lives with a confident, aligned smile. With modern technology, flexible financing, and discreet treatment options, it’s easier than ever to get started—no matter your age.
Why Adults Choose Braces
Whether motivated by aesthetics, oral health, or newfound self-confidence, adults are embracing braces later in life. Conditions like overlapping teeth, bite issues, or gaps can develop or worsen over time, making orthodontic care a smart investment in your dental health.
Discreet and Modern Options for Adult Braces
Invisalign® Clear Aligners
Virtually invisible and removable, Invisalign® is a popular choice for adults wanting to straighten their teeth without the hassle of traditional devices. You can eat, brush, and floss as usual—you simply wear the aligners for 20–22 hours per day.
Ceramic (Clear) Braces
Clear ceramic braces offer the strength of traditional metal braces while being far less noticeable. They’re especially popular among professionals and adults seeking an effective but subtle option.
Traditional Metal Braces
Tried and true, today’s metal braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever. They remain a reliable option for more complex alignment issues.
What Is the Best Type of Braces for Adults?
The best type depends on your personal needs, treatment goals, and lifestyle. At Visage Orthodontics, we provide expert consultations to help choose the right appliance for you—be it Invisalign®, ceramic, or metal braces.

Cost shouldn’t stand between you and your dream smile. With a variety of payment options, we ensure care is accessible.
