Why Orthodontics for Adults?

Many adults opt for orthodontic treatment to correct issues such as overcrowding, misalignment, or bite problems that weren’t addressed in childhood. Others simply want to enhance their smile for aesthetic reasons. At COS, we provide a range of solutions that fit the unique needs and lifestyles of adults. Thanks to modern advancements in orthodontics, treatment options are more discreet and convenient than ever before.

By choosing Stevens Point orthodontics at COS, you can achieve the smile you’ve always wanted while improving your oral health. Our team works closely with adult patients to create customized treatment plans that align with their goals and fit seamlessly into their lives.

Braces for Adults: Reliable and Effective

While braces are commonly associated with younger patients, they are also an effective treatment option for adults. At Central Orthodontic Specialists, we offer traditional metal braces for adults who want to achieve reliable and long-lasting results.

Traditional Metal Braces for Adults

Metal braces are a durable and highly effective solution for addressing even the most complex orthodontic issues. With modern advancements, today’s metal braces are more comfortable and less noticeable, making them a viable option for adults seeking precise results.

Benefits of Metal Braces for Adults

Precise Control: Metal braces allow for highly controlled tooth movement, making them ideal for complex cases.
Effective for All Ages: Whether correcting long-standing alignment issues or newly developed problems, metal braces offer reliable outcomes.
Modern Comfort: Braces today are designed with comfort in mind, using smaller brackets and smoother wires for a better patient experience.

Clear Aligners for Adults: Discreet and Convenient

For adults seeking a more subtle option, Central Orthodontic Specialists offers clear aligners. Clear aligners are an excellent choice for those who want to straighten their teeth without the look of traditional braces. These nearly invisible trays provide the flexibility to maintain your professional and social life without drawing attention to your treatment.

How Clear Aligners Work

Clear aligners are a series of custom-made, clear plastic trays that gently and gradually shift teeth into the correct position. Aligners are worn for 20-22 hours per day and can be removed for eating, drinking, and cleaning, making them a convenient choice for busy adults.

Benefits of Clear Aligners for Adults

Discreet: Clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them ideal for adults concerned about appearance during treatment.
Removable: You can remove the aligners for meals and important events, allowing you to continue with daily life as usual.
Low Maintenance: With no brackets or wires to clean, clear aligners make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene throughout treatment.

My family was traveling from Germany over the holidays back to Central WI when my daughter had a bracket break. I have to sincerely thank Dr. Brett Barton, DDS, MS for his incredible willingness to take time away from his family during the holidays when the clinic was closed to come in and help us. His service went above and beyond our expectations, we highly recommend anyone looking for caring and kind Orthodontic care to consider this office. Sending all the best from Bavaria!

Dr. Ostertag is kind, thoughtful and a wonderful orthodontist. My daughter had some previous poor experiences with dental and ortho and he won her over which is not easy. He had more than one possible approach to her treatment and that made all the difference.

I am from Florida and am in town for work here in Wi. The hooks for my rubber bands were tearing up my mouth and I needed someone to look at it ASAP as I wouldn’t be home for another two weeks. They were able to take a look at me and help me out same day. The staff were wonderful and the doctor was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this practice if you’re looking for orthodontic needs!

We have had a fantastic experience with Dr. Kreul over the years. He did my first daughter's braces and we had many free consultations for the years preceding her braces. He has been doing free consultations for several years already on my younger daughter. He is always kind, gentle with my children, and respectful. His staff has always been professional in the years since we've been seeing him. I would highly recommend this orthodontist.
