Teeth-Straightening Solutions for the Grown-Ups

Orthodontic treatment can be successful in adulthood as long as your gums and bone structure are healthy. Even if you do have dental concerns, Dr. VanderWall can work with your dentist or other specialists to help you get to a place where he can safely and effectively straighten your teeth.
