Today’s adult orthodontics is more comfortable, discreet, and personalized than ever– and it’s helping us get more adults, teens, and kids in Beavercreek and Englewood the smile they want!

What’s different about adult braces in 2026?

  • More discreet options
    • Clear ceramic brackets and Invisalign make treatment nearly invisible 
  • Better technology
  • Flexible financing
    • Affordable monthly payments and HSA/FSA options help make treatment more accessible

What hasn’t changed?

Orthodontics still requires diagnosis, treatment planning, and execution by a specially trained and certified expert and a commitment to follow-through. Adults tend to be great candidates because they’re especially motivated and consistent.
