Adult patients in Torry increasingly choose treatment later in life. Adults have the same clinical options as teenagers, with the advantage of being motivated, compliant patients. A photo assessment is an easy way to see which adult option suits your case.
Gum Health Before Adult Orthodontic Treatment
Adults are more likely than teenagers to carry some history of gum disease or recession, so a gum-health assessment — and treatment of any active disease — comes before orthodontics. Moving teeth through unhealthy bone can worsen problems and cause bone loss, which is why most Torry orthodontists require a recent check confirming gum health first.
Once gum health is confirmed or restored, adults with a well-managed periodontal history treat successfully. During treatment it needs extra care: braces make cleaning harder, and aligner wearers must brush thoroughly before reinserting trays.
Adult Orthodontics in Torry — Local Context

How Adults Straighten Their Teeth in Torry
Clear aligners are the default request from adults in Torry who want treatment nobody notices. Removable and discreet, they reward consistent wear and suit mild-to-moderate cases.
Ceramic braces trade a little visibility for the full control of a fixed appliance, suiting adults whose cases need more than aligners can deliver.
Lingual braces bond to the inner tooth surfaces for total invisibility from the front — the priciest route, popular with adults whose work is public-facing.
Metal fixed braces still offer the best value for complex bite work, and for most adults in Torry — who rarely qualify for NHS care — they're the affordable fixed option.
