Orthodontics for Adults

Did you know that adults account for 25% of orthodontic patients? And that number continues to grow as more adults seek orthodontic care.
In fact, the American Association of Orthodontics states that the number of adult patients increased 40% between 1989 and 2012, with nearly 1.5 million adults wearing braces in 2014.
The Benefits
Generally speaking, if your gums and bone structure are healthy, the alignment of your teeth can be changed at any age. Adult orthodontic treatments not only improve your smile, but your teeth and gums, too. When teeth are properly aligned, at-home care and maintenance is easier and more effective, helping to reduce tooth decay and gum disease, and improving overall health. Studies have proven that poor dental health can lead to increased risk for heart disease, respiratory infections, diabetic complications and even dementia.
Additionally, repairing an improper bite can help prevent related conditions such as abnormal wear of tooth enamel and surfaces, headaches and even jaw and joint (TMJ/TMD) pain.


Schedule a Consultation
If you aren’t familiar with today’s orthodontic techniques and treatments, you may be surprised to learn about the many improvements in the experience as a whole. Thanks to advanced procedures and technology, most patients enjoy shorter treatment times, less discomfort and greater overall results.
At Dental Depot, we offer a variety of choices in orthodontic appliances, based on your situation and needs. In addition to traditional braces, we also offer silver Damon brackets and more discreet options, including clear Damon brackets, and Invisalign, which are clear, custom-made aligners that gradually move teeth into position based on the patient’s customized treatment plan.
Contact us today – we would be happy to provide a complimentary initial exam and consultation to determine the best option for you, and to review with you the expected treatment time and approximate cost.
We currently offer orthodontic services at these convenient locations:

Customers Say
My son was worried about getting braces, but the staff at Dental Depot South on 104th put him at ease & everything ran smoothly!
Both my kids go here, one is 15 years old and the other is 6 years old. The whole staff is so friendly, helpful, understanding, and is just so good with my kids. They know exactly what to do with their age range. They are so good that my kids like to go to the dentist! My son just recently got his braces on the orthodontist side,and we couldn't be more happier than to stick with them and not go to any other places our friends and families refer us to. Dental Depot is the best!
My daughter loves her dentist and her ortho! I am so glad she is comfortable with these people, it makes the whole experience much better and having braces easier to tolerate.
My two boys have been coming to Dental Depot for over 2 years now. My oldest 16 had braces on for that time frame and I can say from a parents perspective it was a great experience. They are very helpful and nice. The scheduling throughout this process was a breeze. He just got them removed and we're both very pleased with the outcome.
Great staff and environment. My daughter just got her braces off and her smile is beautiful. Braces are not cheap, but they were worth it and the entire experience has been excellent here. Thanks guys!
What an amazing team! Made my daughter very comfortable and ready to get braces!
