Why choose clear aligners for your adult orthodontics?

words Alexa Wang

There are three types of adult patients who ask for orthodontic treatment. Firstly, there are those who have needed orthodontics as children or adolescents but have not been able to be treated previously for various reasons.

Secondly, there are those who have already had orthodontics when they were younger. In this case it is a problem derived from not wearing retainers when we have finished orthodontic treatment. Finally, there are patients who did not need braces when they were young but who may need them as adults.
