It is an exciting time in the field of adult orthodontics.
More than ever before, people are coming forward to have their teeth straightened later in life, equating to more adult aligners and braces being worn.
If you are curious as to why you haven’t noticed this upsurge in braces while out and about, it could be because they do not use traditional metal braces. Indeed, many of the braces used by patients today are either defined as clear or invisible, which as the name suggests, make them very difficult to spot!

With the use of Invisalign in Cornwall, we have been able to straighten thousands of smiles in our time as a cosmetic dentist, helping people of all ages get great smiles discreetly. Perfect!
