Confident Smiles at Any Age
Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for kids and teens. In fact, more than 25% of our Kelowna braces and Invisalign patients are adults! As long as your gums and bone structure are healthy, the teeth can move at any age. Dr. Scramstad and the Straight Smiles team use advanced techniques and appliances that are comfortable, reduce the frequency of office visits and minimize treatment time to ensure straightening your teeth fits your busy lifestyle.

The Benefits of Straight Teeth
Did you know that 74% of adults suffer from crooked teeth? Many grown-ups notice their teeth shifting in their 30s, 40s and 50s, which can make it challenging to properly brush and floss. When your teeth fit together correctly, they last longer and you can minimize the need for costly dental treatments in the future. Since straight teeth are easier to clean, you’re less likely to suffer from tooth decay and periodontal disease, which has been tied to conditions like diabetes and heart disease. Additionally, aligned teeth and jaws can reduce jaw joint (TMJ/TMD) pain and related headaches. Beyond the health benefits, a straighter smile can dramatically improve your appearance, confidence, self-esteem and overall quality of life!
Smile Solutions for Adults
While metal braces are an amazing option and they’re more attractive and comfortable than ever, adults tend to be great candidates for esthetic options too, such as clear braces and Invisalign. You can achieve a straighter smile while keeping the fact you’re in orthodontic treatment under wraps. Straight Smiles is also a proud Kelowna Propel ® provider and the accessory may reduce treatment time by up to 30 to 50%! Whichever option you choose, Dr. Scramstad will develop a personalized treatment plan that will help you see results comfortably and quickly.
