Why Orthodontic Care for Teens

Boost Confidence
Teenagers often face a multitude of changes, both physically and emotionally. A straight and healthy smile can significantly boost self-esteem and confidence, helping teens navigate the challenges of adolescence with a positive mindset.

Correct Misalignments
Orthodontic issues, such as crooked teeth, overcrowding, or misaligned bites, can impact not only the aesthetics of a smile but also oral health. Our expert orthodontists specialize in addressing these concerns, promoting proper alignment and function for a lifetime of optimal dental well-being.

Aesthetically Pleasing Options
We understand that appearance matters to teens. That's why we offer a variety of orthodontic treatment options, including discreet alternatives like clear aligners, tooth-colored (ceramic) braces and Inbrace lingual braces. Teens can straighten their teeth without compromising their style or self-expression.

Our Teen-Friendly Orthodontic Services

Damon Self-ligating Braces

Time-tested and highly effective, Damon braces are a reliable and efficient option for achieving an amazing smile. Our newest Damon Ultima self-lighting braces are sleeker and more comfortable than ever, making the journey to a beautiful smile a breeze.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

For teens who prefer a more inconspicuous option, clear aligners are a fantastic choice. These custom-made, removable trays gradually shift teeth into their desired positions, allowing for a comfortable and virtually invisible orthodontic experience.

Retainers

After braces or aligner treatment, retainers play a crucial role in maintaining the achieved results. Our retainers are designed to be convenient and easy for teens to use, ensuring the longevity of their beautiful smiles. We even offer a retainer replacement insurance plan to simplify the process of ordering new retainers and remove a lot of the stress that often is associated with lost or broken retainers.
