Adolescent Treatment

Smiling teen girl with skateboardOrthodontic treatment is available to patients of all ages. In many cases, the ideal time for braces or Invisalign clear aligners is between the ages of 11-14, as this is the time most or all of the permanent teeth erupted.

Each patient’s orthodontic condition requires a treatment plan based on a specialized diagnosis of the case. The orthodontic process begins with a complimentary consultation.  This initial visit includes digital diagnostic photographs, a 3-D x-ray, an exam by Dr. Snider or Dr. Nguyen, and a discussion of treatment options and costs. Treatment length varies depending on age, patient compliance, and the severity of the condition.

Whether your teen is active in sports, drama, choir, band, church groups, or a little bit of everything, we offer orthodontic treatment options to fit all lifestyles!  Our office utilizes metal braces and clear ceramic braces.  We also offer teens the option of Invisalign®  Teen clear aligners, when appropriate.

Smiling graduatesThose who complete orthodontic treatment during the teenage years can gain tremendous confidence and showcase their new smile for senior prom, senior pictures, and graduation!

Transferring orthodontic treatment from another office?  No problem!  Many patients move to a different city or state during orthodontic treatment.  Our team is here to help make the transition as easy as possible!

Give us a call to schedule a complimentary consultation today!
