At Smile Center for Kids, we offer orthodontic treatment options to our patients. We use proven state-of-the-art technology to complete orthodontic treatment in the most comfortable and efficient way possible so that each patient receives a healthy and happy smile that can last a lifetime.

When Should My Child Be Seen to Learn If Orthodontic Treatment Is Needed?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children get an orthodontic checkup before they turn seven, as soon as there’s a sign of an orthodontic problem.

When our experienced dentists see young patients for regular dental checkups, they are able to identify emerging orthodontic problems and develop a plan for how they can be corrected, whether that means treating them with the orthodontic treatment options available at Smile Center for Kids or recommending an orthodontist to tackle a particularly complex case.

Which Teeth Straightening Option Is Right For Me?

Clear braces will fit easily into your teenager’s lifestyle, and you and they will both be happy you came to Smile Center for Kids for their orthodontic treatment. We offer two options for teeth straightening, and we can help parents and patients determine which system would be best:

  • Clear aligners: Your teen will progress through a series of clear aligners that gradually move their teeth into their proper alignment.
  • Tréz MaxComfort: Tréz aligners progress from a soft aligner that prepares the cellular processes that move teeth during orthodontic treatment to a medium aligner to a hard aligner that completes the treatment, ensuring comfort and efficiency.

Am I a Candidate for Clear Braces?

Clear braces are the ideal solution for many patients, but some orthodontic problems are too complex for them to fix, such as severe tooth rotation, extra large gaps, intrusion and extrusion, or midline movements. Some problems require visible attachments to otherwise invisible braces.

Some patients are ineligible because their teeth aren’t a good shape for holding the aligners in place or they have a dental bridge or other dental work that isn’t compatible with aligners. Trez aligners are also an excellent option for many patients.
