Why adults choose orthodontics

Many of our adult patients never had braces as children, or their teeth have shifted since. Crowded teeth are harder to clean, and an uneven bite can wear teeth down or contribute to jaw pain.

Adult treatment often works alongside your dentist, for example aligning teeth before crowns, veneers or implants. We coordinate directly with your family dentist in Toronto.

What we offer

Clear aligners

Nearly invisible and removable for meetings and meals.

Ceramic braces

Tooth-coloured braces for more complex bites.

Pre-restorative alignment

Moving teeth before implants, crowns or veneers.

Retainer-only care

New retainers if teeth have shifted after childhood braces.

Conditions we treat

  • Teeth that shifted after childhood braces
  • Crowding and spacing
  • Bite problems causing wear
  • Gaps before implants
  • Gummy or uneven smiles
  • Jaw discomfort related to bite

Common questions

Is adult treatment slower?

Adult bone is denser, so some movements take a little longer, but most adults finish in 12–18 months.

Do benefits cover adults?

Some plans cover adult orthodontics; many cap coverage at age 18 or 25. We'll check for you.
