One in five orthodontic patients is an adult, and for good reason. More adults than ever are realizing they can enjoy the same life-changing benefits of orthodontic treatment that teens experience. Whether you never had the opportunity for treatment as a child or your teeth have shifted over time, it’s never too late to achieve the confident smile you’ve always wanted.
At Star Orthodontics, we’ve been transforming adult smiles in Corpus Christi for over 25 years. Dr. Roxanne Robertson and her experienced team understand that adult orthodontic needs are unique, which is why we offer discreet, comfortable treatment options that seamlessly fit into your busy lifestyle.
Adult braces aren’t just about aesthetics, though a straighter smile certainly boosts confidence. Orthodontic treatment for adults delivers profound health benefits that extend far beyond appearance. Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, significantly reducing your risk for tooth decay and gum disease. When your bite functions correctly, you protect your teeth from abnormal wear and tear that can lead to costly dental problems down the road.
Today’s adult braces are vastly different from what you might remember from decades past. We offer several braces options designed specifically with adult patients in mind, each providing exceptional results while accommodating your lifestyle preferences.
Modern metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before. These proven orthodontic appliances use high-tech materials to move teeth faster with less discomfort. Metal braces remain the gold standard for treating complex orthodontic issues and often deliver the fastest treatment times. At Star Orthodontics, we use only the latest bracket technology to ensure your treatment is as comfortable and efficient as possible.
For adults who want the effectiveness of traditional braces with a more discreet appearance, clear ceramic braces are an excellent choice. These braces feature tooth-colored ceramic brackets that blend naturally with your teeth, making them far less noticeable than metal braces. Ceramic braces work exactly like traditional braces but offer the aesthetic advantage many adult patients prefer, especially in professional or social settings.
As pioneers of Invisalign in the Corpus Christi area for over 24 years, Star Orthodontics has unmatched expertise with this revolutionary treatment. Invisalign uses transparent, acrylic trays that efficiently transform your smile while being practically imperceptible to others. Besides being slim, smooth, and comfortable, they're nearly invisible.
At Star Orthodontics, we understand that seeking orthodontic treatment as an adult requires a different approach. Your time is valuable, your concerns are unique, and your treatment should reflect that. We’ve treated more than 31,000 patients since opening in 2000, and we bring that extensive experience to every adult case.
We know you have a demanding schedule. That's why we offer late evening and Saturday appointments, allowing you to receive expert care without disrupting your workday. We also accept most insurance plans and provide flexible payment options, including 0% interest financing, making treatment affordable for every budget.
Our commitment to cutting-edge orthodontic technology means your treatment is easier, faster, and more comfortable. We use the iTero digital scanner to capture lightning-fast, highly accurate 3D images of your mouth, no messy impressions required.
Dr. Robertson customizes treatment to fit your unique needs and goals. You'll feel at ease and comfortable in our office, grab a cup of coffee, or relax on the couches in the treatment area while receiving care.
Beginning orthodontic treatment as an adult is straightforward and stress-free at Star Orthodontics.
Investing in adult braces delivers benefits that extend throughout your lifetime. A properly aligned bite and teeth balance your facial features, giving you a fresh, youthful appearance. But the advantages go much deeper.
Straight teeth are significantly easier to clean, reducing your risk for tooth decay and gum disease. This means fewer dental problems and lower dental costs in the future. Proper alignment also eliminates abnormal wear patterns that can cause teeth to chip, crack, or wear down prematurely.
