Yes orthodontic treatment can definitely be done at your age and you can achieve satisfactory results. The only difference would be a slightly longer duration of treatment because the bone density increases with age and that is why your treatment will continue approximately for 2 years. The details of the treatment plan can be better explained to you by the orthodontist who performs a proper clinical evaluation of the case. Regards
