Orthodontics By Dr. Gregg Hipple

Adult Orthodontics
So you didn't get braces as a kid, or maybe you did, but you stopped wearing your retainer. Orthodontics can still help you achieve a great smile- you are never too old for braces. Over one million adults are wearing braces today and about 25% of all orthodontic patients are adults.

The biological process involved in tooth movement is the same in adults and children. And regardless of a person's age, successful orthodontic treatment can make a dramatic change in your smile and in your life.

No Tin in Your Grin

Braces have come a long way since you were a kid. New technology has resulted in clear aesthetic braces which look as good as they feel. Advanced wire technology means shorter treatment times and more efficient tooth movement. The good news is that adult orthodontics has never been easier, more efficient and more comfortable.

Your Smile Says It All
According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, nearly half the adults surveyed would like to make an improvement in the appearance of their smile. For most people, an attractive smile is an important part of the overall impression a person makes.

	More Than 92% of adults agree that an attractive smile is an important social asset.

	Nearly 88% of adults say they remember someone with an especially attractive smile

	74% agree that an unattractive smile can hurt a person's chances for career success.
