As our oral health naturally declines over time, it&#8217;s important to maintain proper care suited to our age. Today, we\u2019ll help you understand the process of getting braces in older adults\u2014how it works, whether it\u2019s painful, and if there are any risks involved.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">No matter your age, you can get braces because dental issues such as crooked teeth, gaps, and overbites can occur at any age and should be addressed properly before they affect daily life, confidence, or become a more complex issue.

In general, treatment can begin as early as childhood, typically before the age of 10, and adults over 60 can also get braces. However, adults must have specific indications for braces, and they need to have good oral health before proceeding with treatment.
