Adult Braces in Jacksonville – Straight Teeth Start Here
You don't have to keep living with the smile you grew into. Whether you had braces as a kid and your teeth have shifted, or you're getting orthodontic treatment for the first time, Ortho 99 Plus 1 makes it straightforward, affordable, and worth it.
Our orthodontists specialize in treating adults with options that fit real lives, real schedules, and real budgets.
Why Adults Choose Orthodontic Treatment
Adult orthodontics has grown significantly over the last decade, and for good reason. Today's treatment options are more discreet, more comfortable, and more affordable than ever before. At Ortho 99 Plus 1, nearly 1 in 3 of our patients is an adult — and most of them wish they'd started sooner.Many adults assume orthodontics is only for teens, but that is no longer the case. Adults often seek treatment for both cosmetic and functional reasons. Straighter teeth can improve confidence, but they can also reduce uneven wear, support healthier gums, and make daily brushing and flossing easier.
Whether your concern is crowding, spacing, a misaligned bite, or just wanting to finally feel confident about your smile, there's a treatment option designed for you.
What to Expect When You Get Braces as an Adult
Getting braces as an adult is more straightforward than most people expect. Here's how the process works at Ortho 99 Plus 1, from your first visit to your final appointment.
Most adults find the adjustment period is shorter than they expected. The first week is the biggest transition, and it gets easier from there.
Step 01 – Free Consultation
We evaluate your teeth, discuss your goals, and recommend a treatment plan. No pressure, no commitment required.
Step 02 – Custom Treatment Plan
Your orthodontist maps out your full treatment, including timeline, method, and cost, before anything begins.
Step 03 – Braces Placed
Your brackets or aligners are fitted, usually in a single appointment. Same-day placement is available if you're ready to start right away.
Step 04 – Regular Adjustments
You'll visit us every 4 to 6 weeks for routine checkups and adjustments to keep your treatment on track.
Step 05 – Braces Off, Retainer On
Once your teeth have reached their final position, your braces come off and you'll be fitted with a retainer to maintain your results.

Are You a Good Candidate for Adult Braces?
Most adults are good candidates for orthodontic treatment. If your teeth and gums are in reasonably good health, there's a strong chance braces or aligners can work for you. Here are some of the most common reasons adults seek treatment:
Crowded or overlapping teeth
Gaps or spaces between teeth
An overbite, underbite, or crossbite
Teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment
Jaw discomfort or uneven wear from a misaligned bite
Wanting to feel more confident about your smile
A few things may affect your treatment plan, though they rarely prevent treatment altogether:
Active gum disease or untreated cavities will need to be addressed with your general dentist first
Missing teeth may require coordination with a dentist or oral surgeon for implants or bridgework
Certain jaw issues may benefit from a combined orthodontic and surgical approach
The best way to know for certain is a free consultation with one of our orthodontists. We'll take a look at your full dental picture and give you an honest assessment of your options.
