Many adults have had braces in their teenage years and they notice their teeth have shifted a little bit over time. Unfortunately, teeth do shift as we age. It’s a fact of life. It’s Mother Nature.
Re-treatment is useful in cases where the patient’s teeth have shifted (a little or a lot) after receiving orthodontic treatment in Sachse, TX. You may or may not need a full set of braces in these instances.
Express, lite, and short treatments may be what you need! During your 1-on-1 consultation at Smile Brite Orthodontics, Dr. Kapadia will discuss and recommend the best possible options for you.
