In recent years, many adults have been looking for the orthodontic treatment they've needed since childhood.  However, adult orthodontics is substantially different than orthodontics for teens or children, and it's very important to remember these differences.  One difference being the method appliances are bonded to your teeth. Adult orthodontics use dental cement (more specifically, for a less noticeable option, like lingual braces).  This makes serious oral hygiene essential during treatment. While severity of said differences can depend on the patient, it's crucial to acknowledge these differences before seeking treatment.
