Today a variety of teeth correction and braces option are available to suit all age groups. Best results are always for younger age groups as the the bone is moldable. You will be pleasantly surprised at the results. However it depends on your oral hygiene status, bone health. Walk in to a dental clinic and get evaluated for the ideal solution for you.
