Adult orthodontic care at Atlantis
Orthodontic treatment is not limited to children and teenagers. Adults may pursue care to address tooth alignment, function, smile appearance, or a combination of personal goals.
Dr. Golnaz Kavand provides adult orthodontic treatment at Atlantis in Dublin. She takes time to understand what you would like to change and discusses recommendations in relation to your needs, preferences, and lifestyle.
Why adults consider orthodontic treatment
Every adult arrives with a different reason for exploring treatment. You may be focused on alignment, how your teeth function, how your smile looks, or several concerns at once. A consultation gives you an opportunity to explain those priorities and understand the choices Atlantis offers.
Adult braces and Invisalign options
Traditional metal braces
Traditional metal braces use brackets attached to the teeth and orthodontic wires to guide tooth movement. They remain attached during treatment and do not depend on remembering to replace removable aligners. Our braces and clear aligners page explains the practical differences between the options.
Invisalign clear aligners
Invisalign uses a planned series of clear, removable aligners. Adults remove them for meals and oral hygiene, then replace them according to Dr. Kavand’s instructions. Consistent wear is an important part of following the treatment plan. Learn more on our Invisalign page.
Choosing between braces and Invisalign
Neither braces nor Invisalign is automatically the right choice for every adult. Dr. Kavand considers your teeth and bite, listens to your goals, and discusses the available options with your preferences and daily routine in mind. The broader orthodontics overview can help you explore related care at Atlantis.
