Frequently asked

What age should my child start?

Between ages 6 and 10 is typical. This is when the jaw is actively growing and incoming adult teeth can still be guided into place.

Does my child still need braces later?

Not always. Interceptive treatment can simplify or shorten later orthodontics, and in some cases eliminate the need for braces entirely.
