I’m 42 years old with crooked teeth. I’m determined to do something about it in 2016, but don’t want to wear teen aged braces with mouth full of metal. Tell me there is something else for adults?

Leslie,
You are in luck! You can have straight teeth in 2016 and not only do it without metal braces, but do it without anyone ever knowing. There are tons of advances in orthodontics.
Invisalign uses invisible aligners. Not everyone is a candidate, so you’ll have to be checked to see if they’ll work for you.
If you’re serious about a smile makeover, you’ll want to look into porcelain veneers. These won’t straighten your teeth, but they can make them appear straight. The big benefit about these is they can change the shape, size, and color of you teeth. You can get a completely new smile.
Good luck with your new smile in the new year!
