The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early evaluations help identify potential issues and determine if treatment is needed now or in the future.
We offer a variety of options, including traditional metal braces, ceramic (clear) braces, and Invisalign® clear aligners. Each option is tailored to meet your needs and preferences.
Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of the case, but most patients wear braces or aligners for 12–24 months. During your consultation, we’ll provide a customized timeline.
