‘Orthodontic treatment is for children’
‘Adults may not be able to move their teeth.
I would be embarrassed to wear braces.
Do these reasons stop you from having orthodontic treatment?
Nowadays, an overwhelming number of women in their 30s and 50s choose orthodontic treatment.
Misaligned teeth and bite often result in excessive force on the jaw and a habit of chewing on one side only, which can lead to facial muscle imbalances.
This increases the risk of an ‘ageing face’ with sagging cheeks, deeper lines and wrinkles.
Wrinkles and sagging can also make you look tired and grumpy, even when you are not angry.
Nobody wants to look older than their actual age or give a negative impression of gloom or fatigue, and many people would be happier if they looked younger than their actual age.
Many people say that orthodontic treatment gives them a ‘younger looking face’.
Patient in her 50s surprised by friends to look younger after orthodontics.
Aligning the teeth and correcting the bite can help to balance the muscles and remove excess wrinkles and sagging.
One of the most common problems we receive these days is “upper front teeth are forward”, “lower front teeth are forward” or “upper and lower front teeth are forward (tilted)”,
It is difficult to close the lips naturally and you need to apply pressure around the mouth to close it smoothly.
If the mouth is usually opened and closed with a lot of force, the jaw area is more likely to wrinkle and lines are more likely to appear.
The clinic also proposes a treatment policy that preserves as many teeth as possible.
In particular, teeth that have undergone repeated decay treatment can be replaced with healthy teeth to rejuvenate the mouth.
Anti-ageing effects are not the only benefits of orthodontics!
In recent years, dental health has become a major health concern.
It is said that loss of dental health not only affects everyday activities such as eating and speaking, but more importantly, accelerates ageing.
If you cannot chew properly, you will not be able to taste your food.
Other problems such as bad breath and problems with the appearance of your teeth, such as their colour and alignment, can make it difficult to feel confident when communicating.
A normal, active bite can slow down the ageing process and maintain general health, which is truly anti-aging.
