You’re never too old for a healthy, confident smile

Am I too old for orthodontics?

Not at all. Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for kids and teens—more adults than ever are choosing to straighten their teeth and improve their bite later in life. Whether you’re in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or beyond, it’s never too late to benefit from healthier alignment, improved function, and a smile you love. At Davis Orthodontics, we offer flexible, discreet options like Invisalign and ceramic braces that fit into your lifestyle without disrupting your daily routine. Our expert team will meet you where you are and help you take the next step with confidence.

Why more adults are choosing orthodontics

The benefits of adult orthodontics

Orthodontic care doesn’t just improve how your smile looks—it also supports long-term dental health, confidence, and comfort.

Boosts confidence

A straighter smile can make you feel more comfortable in both professional and social settings.

Improves oral health

Correcting alignment and bite issues makes it easier to brush, floss, and maintain healthy teeth and gums.

Flexible, discreet options

Modern technology means you don’t have to choose between results and subtlety, treatment can be effective and even nearly invisible in some cases.

Our orthodontic options

Clear aligners

Ceramic braces

Custom braces

Traditional metal braces

Clear aligners

Clear, comfortable, and virtually invisible, clear aligners are a top choice for adults looking to straighten their smile with minimal disruption. The aligners are removable for meals, meetings, and brushing—making them an easy fit for busy schedules. At Davis Orthodontics, we use a variety of clear aligner systems, including Invisalign, and pair treatment with iTero digital scanning and Dental Monitoring so you can track your progress and check in with your doctor from anywhere.

Ceramic braces

For adults who want a more subtle alternative to traditional braces but still need a fixed appliance, ceramic braces are a great option. They blend in with your natural tooth color and offer reliable, efficient results for mild to moderate alignment issues. These are especially popular with professionals who want effective treatment without a flashy appearance.

Custom braces

Custom braces use advanced 3D imaging to create brackets designed specifically for your teeth. This allows for more precise movement, fewer appointments, and potentially faster treatment. As we expand this system across our practice, more adults are benefiting from a highly personalized approach to braces.

Traditional metal braces

Traditional metal braces are a time-tested approach to orthodontics that are versatile and effective. Modern brackets are slimmer and more comfortable than ever, and can be used to correct even the most complex misalignments.

The adult orthodontics process

Free consultation

We begin with a no-pressure consultation where we take digital x-rays and scans. Your orthodontist will review your goals and walk you through the treatment options that best fit your needs.

Custom treatment planning

Once you choose a treatment option, we’ll create a plan that fits your schedule, timeline, and budget. You’ll get everything you need to move forward with clarity and confidence.

Ongoing care that fits your life

With virtual monitoring and responsive support, we minimize the number of in-office visits while still giving you excellent care. You’ll stay connected and supported from start to finish.

Confident transformations at any age

Our before & after gallery showcases real patients who chose to invest in their smile as adults and never looked back.

Frequently asked questions

Will people be able to tell I’m in treatment?

Not if you don’t want them to! With clear aligners and clear ceramic braces, your treatment can be very discreet. You’ll still be able to smile, speak, and socialize with confidence.

How do I fit orthodontics into my busy schedule?

We offer flexible scheduling, quick appointments, and virtual check-ins with our Dental Monitoring app so you can get great care without it taking over your calendar.

Is adult orthodontic treatment more complicated?

Not necessarily. While adult bones are no longer growing, healthy teeth can be moved at any age. In fact, many adult cases are straightforward, and modern tools like digital scans and custom appliances make treatment even smoother. During your complimentary consultation, we'll assess your case and provide a detailed review of your treatment options and what to expect based on your needs and smile goals.
