Question 1

How long does orthodontic treatment take?

Accepted Answer

Treatment time varies: traditional braces typically take 18-24 months, while clear aligners average 12-18 months. Minor corrections may take as little as 6 months. Your orthodontist will provide a personalized timeline.

Question 2

Am I too old for braces?

Accepted Answer

You're never too old! About 25% of orthodontic patients are adults. Modern options like clear aligners and ceramic braces make adult treatment more discreet than ever.

Question 3

Braces vs clear aligners - which is better?

Accepted Answer

Both achieve great results. Braces work for all cases including complex ones. Clear aligners are nearly invisible and removable but requires discipline. We'll help you choose the best option for your lifestyle and needs.

Question 4

How much do braces cost?

Accepted Answer

Braces typically cost $3,000-7,000 and clear aligners $4,000-8,000. Most insurance plans cover a portion, and we offer $0-down payment plans to make treatment affordable for every family.

Question 5

Do braces hurt?

Accepted Answer

You may experience some discomfort for a few days after getting braces and after adjustments. This is normal and manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers. Most patients adjust quickly.
