This document discusses several key considerations for orthodontic treatment in adults. It notes that biological factors like decreased vascularity and bone density make tooth movement more difficult in adults compared to children. Proper diagnosis is important, considering issues like missing teeth and periodontal disease that can impact anchorage. Treatment objectives focus on establishing optimal occlusion and contacts while balancing aesthetics, function, and stability. Lower force levels are recommended due to reduced biological response in adults. Multidisciplinary treatment may be needed and retention requires a long-term approach.
