Adolescent Orthodontic Treatment

When is the best time to get braces?

The most common time for orthodontic treatment is between ages 11 and 15. By this age, most permanent teeth have erupted, making it easier to identify concerns like crooked teeth, gaps, and bite issues.

Why is this the ideal age?

Teens often adjust well to braces because many of their friends are also in treatment. They also tend to have faster metabolisms, which can help make treatment more comfortable and efficient.
