Dear Dr. Stosich.,
I’m 41 and am tired of my bad smile. I’m worried about getting braces at my age, though. My brother had braces recently, and his orthodontist had to pull teeth before starting treatment. Do all adults need teeth pulled before undergoing orthodontic treatment?

GRAYSLAKE, Ill.-1. When teeth are properly aligned it is easier to keep teeth clean and free of plaque. There are no gaps or crevices for plaque to hide around, making it easier to maintain a clean and healthy smile.
