There is no age limit, provided the periodontal tissues are still fundamentally intact, that is the teeth are still relatively firmly fixed in the bone. It is also quite common to believe that braces are only suitable for children and adolescents. People tend to think “It’s too late for me anyway”, but they are often mistaken because even if you are a grown up adult you can still have this kind of treatment.
Moreover, even patients in their sixties can be treated efficiently with fixed lingual appliances.
