Braces for Adults: It’s Never Too Late for a Straight Smile
At Hardin Advanced Dentistry, we believe it’s never too late to achieve the confident, straight smile you’ve always wanted. Whether you didn’t have the opportunity to straighten your teeth when you were younger or your teeth have shifted over time, Invisalign offers a discreet, comfortable solution tailored specifically for adults. Led by Dr. Tara Hardin, an Accredited Fellow of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and one of the Top 25 Women in Dentistry, our Cincinnati dental practice delivers results with precision, artistry, and advanced technology.
Let’s explore why Invisalign is the top choice for adults seeking a straighter smile without the hassle of metal braces.
What Makes Invisalign Ideal for Adults?
Traditional braces often come with drawbacks that don’t align with an adult lifestyle. Invisalign’s clear aligner system solves that with a nearly invisible, removable option that fits seamlessly into your daily routine. Here are a few key reasons adults prefer Invisalign:
- Discreet appearance: The transparent aligners blend into your smile, ideal for both professional and social environments.
- Comfort-focused design: With no brackets or wires, Invisalign reduces irritation and offers a smoother orthodontic experience.
- Lifestyle flexibility: Remove your aligners to eat, drink, brush, and floss with ease—no food restrictions or special tools required.
- Time-efficient treatment: Invisalign often produces results in 6 to 12 months, significantly faster than traditional braces.
How Invisalign Works
Your Invisalign journey at Hardin Advanced Dentistry begins with a personalized consultation. Dr. Hardin carefully evaluates your bite and alignment, then uses state-of-the-art imaging technology to design a series of custom aligners just for you. These aligners apply gentle, consistent pressure to gradually move your teeth into the desired position.
Each set is worn for 20-22 hours a day and changed approximately every two weeks. You won’t need to worry about tightening appointments—instead, you’ll visit our Cincinnati office every six weeks for progress checks and to receive your next set of aligners. The entire process is streamlined for ease, comfort, and exceptional results.
Correcting Common Issues with Invisalign
Invisalign is an effective treatment for many orthodontic concerns, including:
- Overbites and underbites
- Crowded or crooked teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Shifting after previous orthodontic treatment
Dr. Hardin’s meticulous approach ensures each case receives the individualized care needed for optimal results. Using digital smile design and advanced tools like the iTero scanner, we can preview your final smile before treatment even begins.
