Getting braces after 40: I got my smile back

For years, I covered my mouth with my hand and laughed in photographs. When I was 41, I said "enough is enough" and had clear braces installed. I'm 16 months old and my teeth are almost completely straightened. I call out to everyone who is hesitant because of their age: It is never too late!

Thank you, this message gave me such a morale boost! I am 38 years old and I have my first appointment next week, I was very nervous but now I am determined.

Congratulations! Age is just a chronological datum; Orthodontics can be safely applied even to a 60-year-old patient whose periodontal tissue and alveolar bone health are biologically favorable.
