Orthodontics for the Whole Family

Many patients seeking smile alignments wonder if and which Orthodontic treatments are right for them, and if there’s an ideal time to be fitted.  Is it too early for orthodontics? Is it too late? At my practice, I believe that there’s no “right” age to come in for an Orthodontic treatment.  My patients range from young children that need to correct developmental bite problems to adults that want to better align their smiles.  My practice offers a variety of orthodontic options to help address a wide range of smile needs, including traditional braces, clear braces, Invisalign, early treatment, and six-month braces.

If you are a parent who’s unsure if your child will need braces, it’s best to bring your child in for an orthodontic evaluation at the first site of any crowding, spacing issues or bit misalignment, even if they’re just baby teeth.  At a younger age, it is easier to move the teeth and monitor any problems that will become more difficult to address with age.  As children move away from bottles, pacifiers, thumb sucking habits and incoming baby teeth, bite problems become recognizable.  In order to begin to address these problems at an age where the teeth are more forgiving, I offer early treatment options.  Early treatment will help with major bite problems as the permanent teeth grow in. 

For most children, the permanent teeth have grown in by ages ten to thirteen.  At this point, I can offer my patients traditional braces to fix bite and alignment issues permanently.   My patients with traditional braces come in for adjustments every few months.  To make these appointments easier on the parents, I offer after school friendly hours.  I know your schedules are busy, so my staff and I try our best to make appointments more convenient for the whole family.

Older patients and adults tend to want to steer away from traditional braces.  However, this doesn’t mean you can’t have a beautifully straight smile!  I offer clear braces for patients that are concerned about the metallic look of traditional braces.  With clear braces, the brackets and wires blend right in with the natural color of your tooth.  I also offer Invisalign and six-month braces for those of you that want to better align your smiles in less time.  There are many options to choose from and if you have any questions about them or want to discuss what option is best for you, I invite your call and look forward to our appointment to discuss the best orthodontic options for you.
