It’s never too late to invest in your smile. At Croco Orthodontics, we provide personalized, discreet, and effective braces for adults in Coralville, IA—helping you achieve a healthy, confident smile that fits your lifestyle.
More than ever, adults are seeking orthodontic treatment. Whether you had braces as a teen and your teeth have shifted, or you’re getting treatment for the first time, we’re here to guide you with compassion, expertise, and zero judgment.
We understand that adult patients have unique needs. That’s why we offer flexible scheduling, private consultations, and treatment options that are subtle, efficient, and tailored just for you.
Why More Adults Are Choosing Braces
Adult orthodontics isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about total oral health. Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease. A properly aligned bite can also alleviate TMJ pain, prevent premature tooth wear, and improve overall function.
You may benefit from braces if you have:
- Crowded, crooked, or rotated teeth
- Gaps or spacing
- Shifting teeth due to orthodontic relapse
- Bite issues (overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite)
- Jaw discomfort or grinding (bruxism)
- Difficulty cleaning between teeth or chewing comfortably
With today’s technology, we can address these concerns efficiently and discreetly—no bulky metal or years of treatment required.
Braces Options for Adults in Coralville
At Croco Orthodontics, we offer several treatment options tailored specifically for adult patients. Whether you’re looking for a clear, low-profile solution or the most precise technology available, we’ll help you choose what’s right for you.
Traditional Metal Braces
Still one of the most effective tools in orthodontics, metal braces are durable and excellent for treating more complex issues. Many adult patients choose metal braces when they want fast, predictable results and don’t mind a more visible appliance.
Modern brackets are sleeker and more comfortable than ever before.
LightForce 3D-Printed Braces
Looking for something more discreet? LightForce braces are the world’s first fully custom, 3D-printed bracket system. These brackets are made to fit the exact shape of your teeth, reducing discomfort and treatment time.
They’re tooth-colored, low-profile, and blend in naturally—making them an ideal choice for adults who want subtlety without sacrificing performance.
How Long Does Adult Treatment Take?
Most adult patients complete orthodontic treatment in 12 to 24 months, depending on the complexity of their case and the type of appliance chosen. Clear aligner patients may finish even faster, especially in mild to moderate cases.
During your free consultation, we’ll provide a detailed timeline and walk you through what to expect—no pressure, no surprises.
