What is the best age for braces? 

When it comes to your child's smile, starting early can make it easier to prevent problems before they develop, ideally between ages 10 and 14, when most or all adult teeth have come in. We recommend scheduling a consultation as early as age 8 to ensure your child's smile is on the right track. 

That said, you're never "too old" for braces!  We've helped thousands of adults achieve straighter, healthier smiles at any age. 

How effective are braces? 

Traditional braces have been a trusted solution for straightening teeth in both teens and adults for many years. They're effective for mild to severe cases, providing reliable and predictable results. Unlike removable aligners, braces stay in place to ensure consistent progress and help you follow your doctor's plan. With braces, you're making a lasting investment in a healthy, confident smile. 

The Process

1. CONSULTATION & PLACEMENT

The goal of this phase is to help you understand the different treatment options, take x-rays and photos so that we can plan your care, and get you on your way to that smile you’ve been dreaming of.

2. ADJUSTMENTS

In this phase, we will bring you in for regular adjustment appointments to keep your braces working at their maximum potential.

3. REMOVAL & RETENTION

In this final phase, the braces will be removed from your teeth and you will get that first glimpse of your smile in the mirror. We also set you up with a retainer to keep that perfect smile for good.

Braces treatment typically lasts between 1 and 3 years, depending on factors like your age, the treatment method you choose, and the complexity of your case. While it may feel like a long journey, the results are truly life-changing — a healthy, confident smile that lasts a lifetime.

The process of getting braces placed typically takes about one hour.  During this visit, our skilled assistants will carefully attach your braces and review important information, including proper care, emergency guidance, and foods to avoid. After your initial appointment, regular checkups and adjustments usually take 30 to 40 minutes and are scheduled every four to eight weeks to keep your treatment on track.

It’s normal to experience some mild to moderate discomfort after your braces are first placed or adjusted. The good news is that this usually eases shortly after your appointment.

Traditional braces have evolved over the years and now feature smaller, less noticeable brackets and wires for a more comfortable and discreet experience. 

If you’re looking for an even more subtle option, we also offer Invisalign®, which uses thin, transparent aligners that fit comfortably over your teeth

Yes! If it is determined that your child requires a palatal expander before braces treatment, the price is included in the cost of braces. Read more about palatal expander treatment here.
