“😔I WISH I STARTED BRACES LAST TIME.”
**ps : Our most senior braces patient till date started her braces at 63 years old
“I’m already 35.”
“I’ll look awkward at work.”
“I should have done it when I was younger”
🦷 Here’s the common part being misunderstood :
Being an adult does not automatically make you “too old” for braces treatment.
Teeth can still be moved in adulthood. What matters is whether your teeth, gums and supporting tissues are suitable for treatment — and what you’re trying to correct.
So if you’re 30, 40 or 50 and you’ve been thinking:
“I should have done braces 10 years ago…”
Don’t let that thought automatically become:
“…so there’s no point doing it now.”
You can’t start 10 years ago.
But you can find out whether treatment is suitable today.
Sometimes the question isn’t:
“Why didn’t I start earlier?”
It’s:
“Do I want to still be asking myself this 10 years from now?”
