Ask Dr. Hilgers: “I’m 29 – am I too old for braces?”

Thanks for the question, and of course not!

Recently, we came across an article that reported adults getting braces has jumped 24 percent from just 15 years ago! In fact, did you know one of every five patients in orthodontic treatment is over the age of 21?

In an age—and society—where looks matter as much as anything, and at a time when evenly-aligned teeth might be the difference between getting a job or that promotion, adults are choosing to invest—rather wisely—in orthodontics. While orthodontics are often associated with teenagers, adult orthodontics and braces at our Goodyear office can achieve amazing results for adult patients. Orthodontic treatment at Hilgers Orthodontics can be successful at any age, and our dedicated staff knows that adults especially appreciate the benefits of a gorgeous smile.

If you’ve been thinking about getting that perfect smile, Dr. Mike Hilgers would love to have you visit for a consultation. Please give us a call to set one up!
