Orthodontics isn’t just for kids—adults can benefit greatly from braces or clear aligners, no matter their age. Straightening your teeth can improve both the appearance of your smile and your overall oral health. It’s never too late to achieve a smile you’re proud of.
A common misconception is that orthodontics is only for kids or that it’s too late for adults to start treatment. The truth is, if your teeth and gums are healthy, it’s never too late to improve your smile and your health. Many adults are now opting for braces or aligners to address long-standing issues or simply to enhance their appearance.
As we age, crooked or misaligned teeth can lead to dental problems like tooth decay, gum disease, and jaw pain. Misalignment can also affect your ability to chew and speak properly. Orthodontic treatment addresses these issues by realigning your teeth and improving their function and appearance.
Straightening your teeth can dramatically enhance your smile, boosting your self-esteem and helping you feel more confident in social and professional situations.
Better Functionality
Orthodontics can correct bite problems, such as overbites or underbites, improving your ability to chew, speak, and breathe comfortably. This can also reduce strain on your jaw and prevent headaches or discomfort.
Improved Oral Health
Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of gum disease, TMJ, cavities, and tooth wear. Orthodontic treatment can help prevent future dental issues by improving your bite and making oral hygiene more effective.
Did You Know
Nearly 1 in 4 orthodontic patients is an adult, and the number of adults seeking braces or aligners has increased by over 40% in the last decade.
Orthodontics isn’t just something we offer — it’s all we do. With over 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Knoefel creates precise, personalized treatment plans designed for long-term success. Whether it’s braces, aligners, or a combination of both, you’re getting a plan backed by decades of focused expertise — not guesswork.

Went here for a consultation and I definitely don’t regret it. So I’m horrible at remembering names right away, but everyone I met was very wonderful and kind, the atmosphere was calm and relaxed, the office was clean front to back, they layout wasn’t confusing etc.
The ladies who where involved with my consultation were very kind informed me about options for my needs etc, the lady who did the scan of my teeth was gentle and patient. The doctor himself was very nice, his bedside manner was professional but he was also extremely friendly and had humour. It feels like he truly cares, very informative about your situation after the exam. Etc I could ramble on about everyone.
If your looking for a orthodontist and team who are kind informative and have a great sense of humour I highly recommend oasis, they feel very warm and homey and if your going to be spending 1,2 maybe 3 years with a orthodontist why not be with a team that is going to make that experience more enjoyable.
Thankyou to oasis and the team for giving me the opportunity to come here, best decision I made. 🙂
