Adult Orthodontics

Thanks to the latest advances in orthodontics, even adults can now enjoy a beautiful smile and healthy teeth, with hardly any change to their lifestyles. One needs to just be careful with hard and sticky foods. Other than that, you can almost do anything with braces; like sing, play musical instruments, drink wine, tea and coffee, dine out and even be photographed!

If you think that your bite needs correction or you'd like to improve your smile, get an orthodontic consult. We will let you know if braces can help you. Crooked teeth and uncorrected bites may lead to tooth decay, gum disease, abnormal wearing of teeth, tooth loss and jaw joint pains. If left uncorrected, the problems are likely to get worse, making dentures and dental implants more likely in the future.

"The quality that I found to be most refreshing about my orthodontic experience with Violet Barbosa, M.D.S.,D.D.S. is that she explained everything to me with such enthusiasm that I could tell that she views her work as an art and a science. As my treatment progressed I found out how correct my initial impression of her was. She knows what she is doing and is refreshingly honest and happy to answer any questions that you may have."
