Conventional braces have been around for many years. While the most common reason behind people getting braces is because their teeth are misaligned or crooked, another reason to consider braces is your bite. Many people think that braces are something for teenagers only, however, plenty of adults get braces as well. 

One of the most important things that you need to consider with braces is the health of your gums and jaw bones. While a straight smile is a lovely thing to have, placing braces on teeth surrounded by unhealthy gums and bones can cause serious complications.
