The stereotypical braces wearer – in middle school, with a mouth full of metal brackets – has led to numerous myths about orthodontics that discourage many people from getting braces. Have you seen the show “The Middle”?
The team at Kemp Orthodontics wants to bust those myths.
Myth 1: Orthodontic treatment is for kids. Although teenagers often visit the orthodontist to get braces, adults represent a growing population of orthodontic patients. 40% of Kemp Orthodontics practice is adult patients. Whether you're eight or 80, a consultation with an orthodontist can identify problems with your teeth, jaws, or bite that can be corrected by orthodontic interventions.
Myth 2: Traditional, metal braces are my only option. With the advances in orthodontic technology we now have clear aligners called Invisalign®. Dr. David Kemp is a premier provider for Invisalign®. We also use an ultra-esthetic brace from 3M Unitek called Clarity Advanced.
Myth 3: Orthodontic treatment is only helpful for crooked teeth. Yes, crowding is a common reason to seek out orthodontics but there are other reasons for orthodontic intervention such as missing teeth, overbite to name a few. Dr. David Kemp of Kemp Orthodontics is trained to help with any orthodontic problem.
Myth 4: Orthodontic treatment is too expensive. With the flexible financing that we offer at Kemp Orthodontics we are sure we can work out a payment plan that will fit your budget.
Now that we have cleared up these myths, give Kemp Orthodontics a call to schedule a complimentary new patient examination.
