Braces are an orthodontic treatment option that can help your child achieve a smile that is straighter and healthier. One of the most common orthodontic treatments available, braces work to improve your child’s smile by gradually, gently realigning teeth. Braces consist of a system of metal brackets, wires, and bands. The brackets are attached to the front of your child’s teeth and are connected to each other through the use of a metal wire and bands. As we adjust the wire, the braces guide their teeth to the ideal positions in their smile. Ceramic braces are also often available, which are the same color as teeth for a more discreet orthodontic option.

If you have ever wanted your child’s smile to be straighter and more attractive, braces may be right for their smile. With braces, we are able to correct orthodontic issues such as:

• Crowded teeth
• Gapped teeth
• Misaligned teeth
• Problems with the bite, including crossbite, open bite, underbite, and overbite
