Am I Too Old for Braces?
Some of the most common reasons our adult patients come to us considering orthodontic treatment include:
·
Teeth that
are crowded or spaced apart, sometimes as a result of tooth decay or gum disease
·
Pain or
pressure from crooked teeth or a misaligned jaw
·
A bad bite
or malocclusion, causing teeth to fit together incorrectly
Most
of all though, adult patients come to our office seeking a healthier mouth and
a more confident smile! Orthodontic treatment at our office can be successful
at any age, and adults especially can appreciate the benefits of a beautiful
smile.As an adult patient, we recognize that you have different needs than our younger patients, and we will work with you to ensure you receive the most appropriate treatment and that your needs are met with understanding and respect from us.
If you’ve been thinking about getting that perfect smile, we would love to have you visit for a consultation. We understand you have a busy schedule, and will work with you to find a time that is convenient for you. Please visit our website or give our office a call to schedule your appointment today!

St. Patrick’s Day Fun Facts!
Our team wants to know: Will you be wearing your green this
Saturday? Whether Irish or not, millions
of people around the world celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with toasts, parades and
“the wearing of the green.” Here are some fun facts about St. Patty’s Day we
know you will enjoy:
• St. Patrick’s Day is observed on March 17th because that
is the feast day of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. It is also a
worldwide celebration of Irish culture and history.
• The name “lephrechaun” has several origins. It could be
from the Irish Gaelic word “leipreachan,” which means “a kind of aqueous
sprite.” Or, it could be from “leath bhrogan,” which simply means “shoemaker.”
• Some American towns have Irish names. They include:
Shamrock Lakes, Indiana; Shamrock, Oklahoma; Shamrock, Texas; Dublin,
California and Dublin, Ohio and Mount Gay-Shamrock, West Virginia
• Despite what you may have heard, St. Patrick never
banished snakes from Ireland. In fact, no snakes exist or ever existed in
Ireland. Ireland is surrounded by icy ocean waters, much too cold to allow
snakes to migrate from Britain or anywhere else.
• St. Patrick’s Day was first celebrated in America in
Boston, Massachusetts, in 1737. Approximately 34 million Americans claim Irish
ancestry. That’s almost nine times the population of Ireland, which has 4.1
million people.

Day, let us know by posting a comment on our Facebook page.
