Adulting comes with a checklist—career goals, home projects, grocery runs, and for more people than ever, orthodontic treatment. The good news? Getting your teeth in shape doesn’t mean flashing metal brackets in your next client meeting or skipping lunch at Blue Pete’s in Virginia Beach. Davillier Orthodontics, led by Dr. Davillier, offers treatment options that blend in, work efficiently, and fit right into your daily routine. Let’s explore what those options look like and how to figure out which one fits your lifestyle best.
Why Adults Are Taking the Braces Plunge
Braces aren’t just for yearbook photos and awkward teen phases anymore. Adults across Suffolk and Virginia Beach are filling orthodontic offices for one reason: it’s never too late to care about your teeth! Maybe your bite’s been bugging you, your teeth have shifted, or you’ve just decided it’s time to feel more confident every time you smile (yes—even during Monday’s 9 a.m. Zoom call).
Here’s why the grown-up crowd is all in:
- Teeth don’t stop shifting just because you turned 30.
- A more functional bite can make chewing, speaking, and smiling easier.
- Braces or aligners can support long-term oral health.
- Looking good in family photos never hurts.
You’re not alone, and you’re definitely not too late. In fact, with modern treatment options from Davillier Orthodontics, you’ve got more choices than ever. Let’s start with one of the most popular picks for adults: clear aligners.
Invisalign and Spark Clear Aligners
Subtle, sleek, and easy to live with—clear aligners check all the boxes for adults on the move. Whether you’re leading a meeting in downtown Suffolk or catching up with friends over brunch at The Bee & The Biscuit in Virginia Beach, clear aligners let you straighten your teeth without putting your life on pause.
Here’s why so many adults choose this option:
Discreet design
Transparent trays mean you can smile confidently at work or social events.
Removable convenience
Take them out to eat, drink, brush, or speak at that big presentation.
Low-maintenance routine
No wires, no brackets, and fewer office visits than traditional braces.
Modern tech
Custom-made trays are designed to gradually move your teeth without interrupting your day.
Clear aligners are ideal for adults who want flexibility without compromising results. But for those needing a little more precision, or who just prefer a set-it-and-forget-it approach, clear braces may be a better fit. Let’s explore that next.
Clear Ceramic Braces
If you’re looking for something a little more subtle than metal, but still want the structure and consistency of braces, clear braces might be your match! Davillier Orthodontics offers this low-profile option for adults who prefer not to mess with trays but still want a less noticeable look. These ceramic brackets blend in with your natural teeth, making them a smart choice for professionals who want to keep things polished without going full invisibility mode.
Here’s why clear braces are worth considering:
Blends in naturally
Tooth-colored brackets are way less noticeable than traditional metal.
Perfect for complex cases
Offers more control over tooth movement than aligners.
No need to remove anything
Once they’re on, they’re working 24/7—no tracking trays required.
Reliable results
Tried-and-true treatment with a more refined look.
If you’re someone who prefers a hands-off approach but still wants something that won’t steal the spotlight at your next event, or that lunch at Harper’s Table in Suffolk, this option might be the sweet spot. Now let’s look at how to figure out which treatment is the best match for your lifestyle.
Finding the Right Fit for Your Lifestyle
Orthodontic treatment is more versatile than you might think, especially when you’re balancing kids’ soccer practice in North Suffolk, client deadlines in Virginia Beach, and your third cup of coffee by noon. The right option depends on how involved you want to be, how your teeth are moving, and how your daily routine plays out.
Here are a few things to consider when choosing your treatment:
- Are you okay with removing trays, or would you rather set it and forget it?
- Do you have mild shifting or a more complex case?
- Are you on the go often or working from home with more flexibility?
- Is convenience, appearance, or speed your top priority?
Dr. Davillier takes all of this into account during your consultation, building a plan that works around your schedule, not the other way around. Once you know what’s right for you, the rest falls into place. Speaking of easy—let’s talk about how scheduling and financing work for adults ready to get started.
Financing and Scheduling That Actually Fit Your Life
