Treatment Options for Adults
At Gragg Orthodontics, we offer a variety of treatment options designed specifically for adults. Every smile is unique, and we’ll work with you to find the best solution for your lifestyle and goals.
Clear Aligners: A discreet option for straightening teeth using nearly invisible, removable trays. Clear aligners are perfect for professionals or anyone looking for a low-profile treatment.
Traditional Metal Braces: Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more effective than in the past, offering a tried-and-true way to achieve a perfect smile.
Ceramic Braces: These braces use tooth-colored brackets, making them less noticeable than metal braces while still providing effective results.
Dr. Gragg will carefully assess your needs and recommend the treatment plan that works best for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Am I too old for braces?
Not at all! Orthodontic treatment is effective at any age. Many of our patients are adults who want to enhance their smiles or address lingering orthodontic issues.
Q2. How long does treatment take for adults?
Treatment time varies depending on your specific goals and the complexity of your case. Most adults complete their orthodontic treatment within 12 to 24 months.
Q3. Are clear aligners as effective as braces?
Yes! Clear aligners can correct many alignment issues while offering the added benefit of being removable and nearly invisible. During your consultation, we’ll help you decide which option is best for you.
Q4. Does orthodontic treatment hurt?
Advances in orthodontics have made treatment more comfortable than ever before. You may experience mild pressure when your treatment begins or after adjustments, but this is temporary and shows your teeth are moving as planned.
Q5. Can orthodontic treatment improve my jaw pain?
Yes, misaligned teeth or bite issues can contribute to jaw discomfort. Orthodontic treatment can help alleviate these problems by realigning your teeth and improving your bite.
