Braces for adults

Braces aren’t just for teenagers. At Profile Orthodontics, we provide advanced, discreet, and highly personalised brace treatments designed specifically for adults.

How braces work?

Braces use a system of brackets, wires, and gentle pressure to gradually move your teeth into their ideal positions. At Profile Orthodontics, we enhance this process with SureSmile technology using robotically-bent wires shaped to match your exact treatment plan.

These advanced, heat-activated wires work with your body’s natural warmth to move teeth more efficiently and comfortably than traditional options. The result? Greater precision, shorter treatment times, and better outcomes.

Brace options for adults

We understand that as an adult, your lifestyle, career, and personal preferences play a key role in your treatment choice. That’s why we offer a range of brace options tailored to meet your aesthetic and functional needs.

Metal braces

Today’s metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before. We use Damon metal braces, which feature a self-ligating design that eliminates the need for elastic bands. This means less friction, easier cleaning, and faster results.

They’re ideal for adults who want reliable results in a straightforward and effective way without compromising on comfort.

Ceramic braces

If you’re concerned about appearance during treatment, ceramic braces offer a discreet alternative. These braces use clear or tooth-coloured brackets that blend in with your natural teeth, making them far less noticeable than metal options.

Ceramic braces are especially popular with adults who want the effectiveness of traditional braces, but with a more subtle look that suits both professional and social settings.

Lingual braces

For the ultimate in discreet treatment, lingual braces are fitted to the back surfaces of your teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front.

At Profile Orthodontics, our lingual treatments are powered by SureSmile technology, allowing us to custom-plan every movement with precision. You’ll get the full benefits of fixed braces while your treatment is completely hidden from view.

Why adults choose braces

Suitable for all cases – Braces can treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, from mild crowding to more complex bite corrections.
Discreet options available – Ceramic and lingual braces offer the aesthetic flexibility many adults prefer.
No need to remove – Unlike aligners, braces stay in place, so there’s no risk of forgetting to wear them or losing them.
Advanced technology – Our use of SureSmile means greater accuracy, shorter treatment times, and improved comfort.

Things to consider with braces

Oral hygiene – Brushing and flossing require a bit more attention during treatment, but we’ll provide tips and tools to make it easy.
Diet adjustments – Hard or sticky foods can damage brackets and wires. Avoiding them helps ensure smooth progress.
Mild discomfort – It’s normal to experience some initial tenderness as your mouth adjusts. Most patients find this subsides quickly.
Visibility – While traditional braces are visible, our ceramic and lingual options offer discreet solutions that suit adult lifestyles.
