tHE LIFE CHANGING BENEFITS OF BRACES AND CLEAR ALIGNERS
Orthodontic treatment offers much more than straight teeth; it enhances both appearance and health. Braces and clear aligners correct alignment and bite issues, reducing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and jaw pain. For many, achieving a balanced, beautiful smile boosts confidence, making a positive impact on social and professional interactions. Whether for kids, teens, or adults, orthodontic care provides a foundation for lifelong oral health and well-being.
What to Expect at Your First Orthodontic Appointment
During your first visit, one of our treatment coordinators will take orthodontic specific records (xrays and photos). After a comprehensive examination by the orthodontist, we’ll discuss treatment options, estimated treatment length, and the associated costs. This is a wonderful time to ask any questions you may have. We invite all parties interested in learning about treatment to join us in the consultation. We always aim to make the best use of your time. In many cases, we can start treatment the same-day as the consult to save an additional trip to the office and avoid missing school.
If your child is not ready for treatment at this time, you will be encouraged to come for periodic appointments to monitor the growth and development of the teeth and jaws. We always aim to start treatment at the optimal time in order to minimize total treatment time and obtain the best possible result.
