Perhaps you’ve lived with your teeth for decades and only now have the time to think about them. Adults in Old Kildonan often want to know whether they’ve missed their chance.
Let's find a time
Orthodontic treatment is often associated with teenagers, which can make an adult feel out of place asking about it. A date of birth doesn’t settle the matter. What your dentist wants to understand is the current condition of your teeth, gums and supporting roots, along with the movements you’d need.
A mouth with some history may have crowns, bridges, fillings or gaps to take into account. Old Kildonan residents can have all of that reviewed at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg, and hear what seems sensible for them, including when aligners don’t seem like the right fit.

Your gums and root support are examined, since teeth need healthy tissue around them to move.
Restorations you’ve had over the years are looked at as part of the overall picture.
It’s completely reasonable to ask about straightening your teeth at any point in adult life.
Treatment planning always considers more than straightness. For an adult with years of dental experience behind them, some of those considerations deserve particular attention.
Moving teeth depends on what’s holding them. Before planning anything, your dentist needs a clear look at how well those structures are doing.
Fillings, crowns and bridges are a common part of adult mouths. They’re considered when working out what could move and how.
If your assessment suggests that aligners aren’t appropriate or that other care should come first, your dentist will explain why. Braces or a combined approach may also be part of that discussion.
If you’ve never had orthodontics, none of this may be familiar. Here’s a simple outline of how Invisalign treatment proceeds from your first appointment onward.
Request your visitYour dentist goes over your teeth, gums, bite and jaws, along with photographs and suitable X-rays, and asks what prompted you to come in.
Tooth movements, room for them, and any needed control are mapped out with your existing dental work in mind.
Your first trays are checked for fit, and someone shows you how they go in and come out. Take as long as you need to feel confident.
Your teeth’s actual positions are compared with the plan at follow-up visits, and any tray that’s not fitting as intended gets attention.
After years of dental care, remembering what was done and when can be tricky. A rough outline is plenty, and any gaps can be filled in during your exam.
If your records are with another dental office, you can ask whether it would be helpful to request them before your assessment.

It’s normal to feel a bit self-conscious about asking for orthodontic advice as an adult. You’ll be treated as someone with every right to care about your own teeth.
Wanting to like your smile, or to make your teeth easier to clean, needs no further justification.
If you have any difficulty handling small objects, say so when learning to take your aligners out and put them in.
Having a chat doesn’t commit you to anything. Your first aim can be to find out what’s possible.
Protecting your investment of effort
Your teeth have already been through plenty, and they’ll keep changing. Once your aligners have finished their work, a sensible aftercare routine helps protect what you’ve achieved.
Progress checks continue up to the end of active treatment. New records and refinement trays may come into play when a movement isn’t finished.
Teeth can shift at any age, which is why your retainers need to be worn as prescribed once tissues begin adapting to their new positions.
Straightening your teeth doesn’t take away the need for general dental care. Ask how your check-ups and any restorative needs would be handled after treatment.

Helpful details about invisalign in Old Kildonan.
Ask our teamYour age by itself doesn’t answer the question. What matters is the health of your teeth, gums and root support, as well as what needs to move, and an assessment can look at all of those.
Certainly. Point them out during your examination, so your dentist can take them into account when explaining what’s possible for you.
Tell your dentist about them. Your gums and the root support of your teeth are checked before any plan is made, and you’ll hear how your history affects your options.
Yes, whatever your age. Teeth can continue to shift through life, and retainers worn as prescribed help limit that movement.
You’re shown how to insert and remove them when they’re delivered. Attachments or tray fit may make it harder at first, so ask for help if you’re struggling.
Treatment planning covers bite function along with position. If you’re curious about whether alignment affects how your teeth meet, it’s a reasonable thing to discuss.
