Have you ever wondered what the magic age is for your child to start down the braces path?
Here’s why you might want to start looking at them much earlier than you think:
Anytime between ages 6-12.
It may feel like seven years old is too early to think about orthodontics, and while every child’s mouth is different — your pediatric dentist can tell you if it is time for an orthodontic consultation.
Thinking about it now might just save you risk and expense in the long run.
It depends from patient to patient, but the average length of time is 18-24 months.
The first week with braces on can be hard as your child adjusts to them, but it gets progressively better thereafter.
We appreciate that you've taken the time to visit us. We will get back to you very soon.
Cost depends on what kind of braces, and how long your child needs to wear them. We do accept most insurance plans, and also offer in-office financing options. Please call to set up a no-obligation free consultation, where we can give you an accurate estimate for your child’s care.
We recommend once every 6 weeks.
We are pediatric dentists well trained in orthodontic care. We don't just keep your child’s teeth straight, we look after them to make sure that your child doesn’t develop cavities while they are wearing braces.
We also make it efficient by performing your child’s professional teeth cleaning at the same time as their braces visit — all their dental needs in one place!

Great environment for children. My son is 8 and I could tell he immediately felt comfortable and at ease.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating of our special needs as my son has autism and tends to get anxious quickly.
