Common Questions About Orthodontic Treatment
We know that starting orthodontic treatment comes with a lot of questions, especially for parents who want to feel confident about their child’s care. Below are some of the most common things we hear from families in the Somerville area:
When should my child see an orthodontist?
We recommend bringing your child in for an initial orthodontic evaluation around age 7. This doesn’t always mean treatment will start right away, but it gives us a chance to spot issues early and plan ahead.
What are my treatment options?
We offer a variety of treatments including metal braces, clear braces, and Invisalign. During your consultation, we’ll help you understand what option is best based on your needs and goals.
Is orthodontic treatment just for kids?
Not at all! Many of our patients are adults who are finally ready to invest in their smile. We offer flexible, discreet options like clear braces and Invisalign for adults who want results without drawing attention.
How long does treatment take?
Treatment time varies depending on your case, but most patients complete their orthodontic care in 12 to 24 months. We’ll give you a clear timeline at your first visit so you know what to expect.
Are braces uncomfortable?
There may be some soreness after adjustments or when starting treatment, but today’s orthodontics are more comfortable than ever. We’ll walk you through tips to ease the transition and keep your child (or you!) feeling good.
