Clear Aligners for All Ages

Phase One

Phase I typically begins between ages 7 and 10, while your child still has some primary (baby) teeth. The goal of this phase is to take a preventive or interceptive approach, stopping problems from developing, correcting issues early, or guiding jaw growth to support healthy development.

Treatment during this early phase may include an orthodontic appliance, such as a palatal expander, to create space, correct tooth alignment, and/or influence jaw position.

Phase II is what most people think of as traditional orthodontic treatment. Once all of the permanent teeth have erupted, typically between the ages of 11 and 15, we may recommend braces or Invisalign® to straighten the teeth and complete the bite correction process.

Every child is different, and so is their treatment plan. We’ll only recommend treatment when we believe the timing is right. At your complimentary consultation, we’ll give you honest guidance and a personalized plan, with no pressure, ever.
