Tooth alignment can be done at various ages. It is best corrected when the jaw is still in growth phase and when the bite is still developing. Moreover the bone is more elastic and responsive at younger ages. From conventional metal braces to cosmetic ceramic braces a wide range of treatments is available. A new addition is invisalign or invisible braces which make use of plates to be worn instead of the conventinal wires and brackets bonded to the teeth but are definitely more than twice the cost as well.
