Increasing Number Of Adults Seek Orthodontic Treatments


Healthline (12/23) discusses the growing number of adults seeking orthodontic treatments, stating that “the number of adults undergoing orthodontia has risen by 40 percent in the past decade, according to the American Association of Orthodontists.” The article states that nearly 25 percent of people who began orthodontic treatment in 2014 were adults, attributing the increasing number of adults seeking orthodontic treatment to “a combination of relatively lower prices and newer, less clunky products.”
