Is There an Age Limit to Get Braces?

Author: Reyus Mammadli

Answer: Previously, it was thought that braces were for young people and children. This is not true. Orthodontics, like love, is for all ages and most often it is with age that we start to think about our health. If in adolescents braces are an early and early prevention of increased wear and tear of the tooth and jaw system and aesthetic requirements, in older patients, it is usually a preparation for high quality prosthetics and implants. Bad bite results in an uneven distribution of pressure on the teeth and surrounding bone, excessive wear and loss of gums in certain areas. That is why it is worth paying attention to your bite at any age in order to keep your own teeth for a long time.
