Adult Orthodontics | Local Orthodontist for Adults

Thinking of getting braces or Invisalign? If you think teens have excuses for not wearing braces, then you should speak to an adult! At Miami Lakes Orthodontics, we believe it is never too late to smile confidently. Many adults had treatment as children, and we hope that you consider us if you have decided to finally get the perfect smile you always dreamed of. Braces for adults have come a long way. Metal braces are no longer the only option. Today we have a wide range of appliances designed to cater to a broad range of lifestyles.

Don’t think you’re alone! Many of our adult patients are now getting braces because, unlike their parents, they can now afford them. Many different types of health insurance cover not only that but today, braces and Invisalign.

The two most common excuses are:

Excuse 1: “Braces are for kids, I’m a grown-up, and I would look ridiculous with a mouth full of metal!”

Although this may have been the case in years past, did you know that more adults are getting orthodontic treatment now than ever before? There are so many options now for adults to improve their smile that are less noticeable than traditional metal braces, such as Invisalign and clear braces. Plus, what is worse is going through a treatment that is barely noticeable with Invisalign or clear braces and ending up with a beautiful smile. Or would you rather be embarrassed every single day of your life with a smile that you are not happy to show?

Excuse 2: “I don’t have time to go to my appointments.”

Adults live in a very busy world: wake up early, get to work, exercise, and let’s not forget the kids! Who has time to sit in a doctor’s office for hours waiting for their appointment? At Lakes Orthodontics, we understand your busy lifestyle, and we cater to busy professionals:

  • Modern patient communication: Our patient communication includes text messages and email appointment confirmations to make it easy to stay on top of your appointments.

Why is a Board Certified Orthodontist the #1 choice for my orthodontic treatment?

We often hear the question, ” Who is the best person to help me with my kid’s braces or my Invisalign treatment?  Another FAQ is “How do I know if my doctor is trained to handle my braces or Invisalign treatment?

When it comes to choosing a doctor to treat your orthodontic needs, your doctor must have the education and experience to properly diagnose and design a treatment that will end with you having a beautiful smile.  There is no better orthodontist to diagnose and treat your orthodontic needs than a board-certified orthodontic specialist.

This means that the orthodontist is not only a specialist but has also gone through hundreds of additional hours of education to demonstrate their judgment, skills, and knowledge required for providing the highest level of patient care.  They have achieved board certification through the American Board of Orthodontics, the only orthodontic specialty board recognized by the American Dental Association and affiliated with the American Association of Orthodontists.

At Miami Lakes Orthodontics, we are proud to say that Dr. Carmen Briceño Crespi is a board-certified orthodontic specialist.  Dr. Crespi is not only board certified by the ABO, but she also graduated #1 from The University of Florida Dental School (Magna Cum Laude) and has been the recipient of several prestigious awards in orthodontics including the Milo Hellman Research Award, which is given to one orthodontist per year as the highest award in all of the orthodontics.  Her success has continued beyond the classroom as she is also an attending faculty member at Miami Children’s Hospital running the Orthodontic Curriculum for Pediatric Dental Residents.
