What is adult orthodontics in Manchester?
Adult orthodontics refers to the area within dentistry that deals specifically with the diagnosis and treatment of misaligned teeth, jaws and bite problems.
Whilst orthodontics has in the past tended to focus on the treatment of children’s misaligned teeth, there has been an increasing trend in recent years to treat adult teeth.
Patients from Salford Quay, Salford, Trafford and throughout Manchester now realise that they don’t have to hide their smile because of crooked or unattractive teeth.
Advances in technology mean that braces are no longer just for children; they are for adults too. Now you can straighten teeth discreetly, comfortably and quickly and get the smile you have been longing for.
Adult orthodontics can treat:
- Gappy teeth
- Overcrowded teeth
- Crooked teeth
- Protruding teeth
- Bite problems

Frequently Asked Questions about Adult Orthodontics
Can adults really get braces or orthodontic treatment?
Yes, absolutely. It’s never too late to improve your smile and bite. Adult orthodontic treatments use the same tooth-moving principles as those used for younger patients, but they’re tailored to adult needs and lifestyles. Whether you’re exploring clear aligners or adult braces, our team will guide you through your options and build a treatment plan that fits your life, goals and comfort level.
Is there any difference between adult orthodontics and child orthodontics?
Is there an age limit for adult orthodontics?
Does adult orthodontics always involve wearing braces?
What happens during a consultation for adult braces or aligners?
During your first visit, you’ll meet with one of our experienced clinicians who will assess your teeth, gums and bite, and discuss your smile goals. We’ll take digital scans or X-rays if needed and talk through the best type of treatment for you (e.g., clear aligners, traditional adult braces). We’ll also provide clear information about cost, time, and what you’ll experience, so you’re fully informed and confident from the start.
How long will adult orthodontic treatment take with braces or aligners?
Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case, the method used, and how consistently you wear any removable appliances. For many adults, a clear-aligner route or adult braces may be completed in about 12–24 months, though mild cases can finish sooner. We’ll give you a realistic timeline based on a detailed assessment so that you know what to expect and can plan accordingly.
Will adult orthodontic treatment affect my lifestyle or daily routine?
Modern adult orthodontic options are designed to fit around your life. With clear aligners, you can remove them to eat, brush and floss as normal, and with adult braces, many of the newer systems are smaller and more discreet. We’ll show you how to live comfortably during your treatment and help you minimise disruption, so you can keep working, socialising and smiling confidently throughout.
How much do adult braces and orthodontic treatments cost, and are there financing options?
The cost depends on factors such as the type of treatment (clear aligners vs adult braces), the duration, and the complexity of your case. At YOR Dental, we believe in transparent pricing and will provide a detailed quote during your consultation. We also offer flexible payment plans and 0% finance options to spread the cost, making expert adult orthodontic care accessible and manageable for your budget.
