Yes, teeth can be corrected even in adulthood, and as people have higher and higher requirements for aesthetics , orthodontics is also becoming more and more popular.

Strictly speaking, there is no age limit for orthodontic treatment, and it is suitable for all ages. Different age groups have different orthodontic effects and times, but they all have their own advantages. For example, because teenagers are in the developmental stage, their teeth move faster, so the correction cycle is short and the results are quick. Although adult correction takes a long time, adults have a higher degree of cooperation with the doctor, are more accustomed to keeping the oral cavity clean and hygienic, and are more comfortable after correction. Focus on maintenance and it's easier to achieve the desired results.

There are two main advantages of orthodontic treatment for adults:

1. It can have some impact on the face shape to a certain extent. Since the teeth will move during the orthodontic process, when the position of the front teeth changes, the front-to-back position of the lips and the relationship between the lips and teeth will also change accordingly. This will bring about changes in the appearance of the lower part of the nose or the lower 1/3 of the face, which plays a role in Beautiful facial appearance.

2. Maintain periodontal health and extend the life of teeth. If the teeth are not arranged neatly and form a dead space, food residues can easily remain in them, causing putrefaction and fermentation to produce acid, causing tooth decay. At the same time, food residues will also accelerate the formation of dental plaque, which will continue to calcify. The deposits form tartar, which stimulates the gums and causes gingivitis, which further develops into periodontitis. If not treated in time, the alveolar bone will be absorbed and the bone level will decrease, leading to tooth loss.
