Adult Treatment

Braces aren’t just for kids anymore. Tooth alignment can be changed at any age if your gums and bone structure are healthy. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed for different age groups – including adults. A new smile can begin today.

Orthodontic treatment at later stages in life can dramatically improve your personal appearance and self-esteem. Improving the health of your teeth and gums is equally important. Crooked teeth and a bad bite can contribute to gum and bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of the tooth enamel and surfaces, headaches and jaw joint (TMJ/TMD) pain.

Good news! The new techniques and appliances we use greatly reduce discomfort levels, decrease the frequency of visits, shorten treatment time and may allow you to choose from several options. Your options may include clear ceramic braces, silver braces, or Invisalign®.

During the initial examination, we will be able to determine the best possible treatment for your individual needs. During this initial examination, we can outline the treatment plan, time of treatment expected and the approximate cost.

A large percentage of our patients are adults, and they agree that it’s never too late to improve their greatest asset – their smile.

  

Dr. Weddle was a second opinion for us and I am so thankful that we chose him and his team of friendly professional staff. The first orthodontists wanted to remove 4 adult teeth just to make the treatment time a little shorter. Needless to say, we stuck with Dr. Weddle and his staff who are wonderful. He developed a plan during the first visit that would at least give us at least the option of trying to correct my daughter's smile before turning to such drastic measures. The plan worked and 2 years later we have amazing results!! No teeth needed to be pulled and we are all so happy with her beautiful new smile. The office is very comfortable with state of the art technology. Everyone was very friendly and the same staff were with us for the entire treatment time of just over 2 years. All the staff knew us by name and greeted us with a smile. Scheduling was pretty flexible and we never waited more than 5 minutes to begin our appointment. There was also excellent communication between Dr. Weddle and his staff. I would recommend anyone to go to Dr. Weddle, you will not be disappointed.

Great staff! Dr. Weddle uses the latest technology to get treatments done quickly! I had braces (as an adult) for only 14 months and the change is amazing. Dr. Weddle and his staff made a great impact on me!

SO WONDERFUL!!!!! I was so impressed by the office staff and the Dental assistants were so professional and pleasant to talk to. Dr. Weddle is like a ray of sunshine and really made us feel so comfortable and the front office staff were so efficient. I work in the dental field and I have yet to find an office with so much integrity, efficiency and overall positive attitude. So completely satisfied!

We could not be more pleased with Dr. Weddle and his staff. We were dreading the whole expander/braces experience but it has not been a big deal at all. We would recommend Dr. Weddle to everyone! His office if far from where we live, but it is well worth the drive.

Best in town ... more like in the country! Dr. Weddle fixed what someone else messed up over 2 years in 6 months. I really thought it was going to cost twice as much, but it didn't. He really wants to help people. The staff is awesome! Everyone is so nice, professional, just wonderful. I highly recommend Weddle Orthodontics.
