QUINCY, ILL. -- Braces aren't just for the middle school crowd anymore.

More adults are going in to get their teeth staightened.

This is the story you voted our Facebook story of the day.

We checked with a few orthodontists in the Tri-States and found out, more adults are coming in these days, and it's been the case for about 15 years.

Dr. Paul Miller in Quincy told us it seems adults are becoming more health conscious of dental health.

He says it's still best to treat the problems early so future problems are minimized, but he treats a lot of adults.

If you are an adult who is considering braces, there is all kinds of information and personal testimonials online.
