Treatment that works around a busy teen schedule

Teenage years are already busy enough, so we build treatment plans around your teen's schedule instead of the other way around. Whether they play sports, sing in choir, or just care a lot about how their smile looks in photos, we'll walk through the options together.

What it is: metal or ceramic braces fitted specifically for teen mouths, with sport and lifestyle guidance built into the plan from day one.

Who it's for: teens with most or all of their adult teeth in, who are ready to keep up with regular check-ins and care instructions on their own.

Teen Braces, Answered

What parents and teens ask us most often.

Will braces stop my teen from playing sports? expand_more
No. Most of our teen patients stay active in sports the whole time they're in braces. We fit a custom mouthguard for contact sports and give simple game-day tips to keep things comfortable.
Can my teen pick their bracket color? expand_more
Yes. Teens choose new colors for their bands at every adjustment visit, or go with clear or tooth-colored ceramic if they'd rather keep braces low-key.
What happens if a bracket breaks during practice? expand_more
Call us and we'll get your teen in quickly. In the meantime, orthodontic wax can cover a poking wire or loose bracket so they're comfortable until the appointment.
How much do teen braces cost? expand_more
Plans start from $188/month with $1,000 down · 0% in-house financing for qualifying families, and we accept most major insurance. Your teen's first exam is free ($99 value), with a clear cost breakdown and no obligation.
