Children’s Braces & Orthodontics
Give your child the healthy and beautiful smile they deserve.
Traditional metal braces are still the most common form of orthodontic treatment. For children, they’re reliable, effective, and economical.
Braces place gentle, consistent pressure on specific teeth and cause them to move in a predetermined direction until they’re in alignment. Traditional orthodontics can treat crowding, gaps, crooked, and misaligned teeth.
Our in-house orthodontist sees children as young as seven. This early intervention can help prevent or minimize alignment issues, making your child’s treatment faster and less expensive.
