Dr. Grasso treats our adult patients, with our milestone orthodontic patient at age 70, by correcting issues with fixed and removable appliance therapy. Orthodontic treatment at later stages in life can dramatically improve your personal appearance and improve the health of your teeth and gums. Crooked teeth, poor chewing function, crowding or an incorrect bite can contribute to gum recession, bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of tooth enamel surfaces, periodontal disease as well as headaches and jaw joint (TMD/TMJ) pain. Dr. Grasso can correct the alignment of your teeth to achieve your aesthetic appearance as well as address challenges that correct or prevent more serious issues that could interfere with overall function and bite.
