Sibling stacking on Saturday Hwy 6 slots
Saturdays 9 AM to 4 PM we block back-to-back chair times so two or three kids from the same family can do ortho adjustments, retainer checks, and cleanings on a single trip down Hwy 6. Ask for a sibling stack when you book.

Bilingual English/Spanish ortho handoffs for Mission Bend families
Our front desk and chairside staff switch between English and Spanish so a parent from the Mission Bend or Alief side can follow the treatment plan, wire-change instructions, and elastic-wear schedule without a translator app.

Straight teeth aren't just cosmetic — they're healthier teeth.
✓
Untreated crowding and bite issues in growing kids get harder to correct once the jaw finishes developing, so early evaluation keeps treatment shorter and less complex.
✓
A loose or broken bracket left in place can irritate the cheek, shift the wire out of its intended path, and stall progress that your PPO orthodontic benefit is already paying for.
✓
Lost or cracked aligner trays allow teeth to drift back toward their starting position within days, which can force a re-scan and reset the treatment clock.

Rodeo Dental Houston • Early Orthodontics for all ages
What's Included in Your Early Orthodontics — Houston
Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Houston, TX for early orthodontics:
1.
Panoramic and cephalometric imaging
We capture a full panoramic X-ray plus a cephalometric side view to map tooth positions, root angles, and the jaw-to-skull relationship before any treatment recommendation is made.
2.
Digital intraoral scan in place of goop impressions
A handheld intraoral scanner builds a 3D model of the arches in minutes, which we use for aligner fabrication, bracket placement planning, and retainer design — no gag-reflex tray impressions.
3.
Bracket bonding with light-cure adhesive
Brackets are positioned with a placement jig, etched and primed on the enamel, and set with a light-cured orthodontic adhesive so the archwire can be seated the same visit.
4.
Archwire sequencing from NiTi to stainless steel
Treatment starts with a flexible nickel-titanium archwire for gentle alignment, then steps up to stiffer stainless-steel wires as the bite moves into its final position over scheduled adjustment visits.
5.
Clear aligner tray handoff with attachment bonding
For aligner cases, we bond tooth-colored composite attachments where the plan calls for them, hand off your numbered tray series, and confirm wear timing and switch intervals before you leave.
6.
Fixed or removable retainer at debond
Once the final result is verified, we remove brackets, polish away residual adhesive, and place either a bonded lingual wire retainer or deliver a clear vacuum-formed retainer to hold the new position.

Frequently Asked Questions About Early Orthodontics
Where exactly is the Hwy 6 North office, and is parking easy for a family with a stroller?
We're at 6150 Hwy 6 North, Houston, TX 77084, in the retail strip just south of Clay Road. Free surface parking sits right at the front door, so carseats and strollers roll straight in without a garage or elevator.
Can I confirm my PPO is in-network before I bring my kids in for an ortho consult?
Yes — call us at (281) 562-7161 before your visit and we'll run your specific plan and subscriber ID through our verification system, including the orthodontic lifetime-max and age-limit details, so you know your share before the consult starts.
Do you do Saturday ortho adjustments so my kids don't miss CFISD school?
Saturdays we're open 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and we hold adjustment slots specifically for school-age patients. Wednesdays and Thursdays we also stay open until 7:00 PM for working parents.
If a bracket breaks over the weekend, can all my kids be seen the same Saturday?
Yes — because we're a multi-specialty office, we can sister-book siblings into back-to-back Saturday chairs and handle a broken bracket, an aligner check, and a sibling's cleaning in one trip.

What makes our Houston office unique for early orthodontics
Early Orthodontics for Houston Families
Our Hwy 6 North office sits just south of the Clay Road intersection in the Bear Creek corridor of northwest Houston, serving families across 77084, 77449, and the Copperfield, Addicks, and Park Row neighborhoods. Orthodontic demand here skews heavily toward school-age kids and teens from Cypress-Fairbanks ISD campuses like Bear Creek Elementary and Langham Creek High, plus working parents on PPO plans who want braces, clear aligners, and retainers handled under one roof.
Because Hwy 6 cuts straight through to I-10 and the Energy Corridor, we see a lot of commuter families squeezing appointments around the drive home, and bilingual English/Spanish households from the Mission Bend side. Our schedule stretches to 7 PM on Wednesdays and Thursdays and includes Saturdays until 4 PM so braces adjustments, broken-bracket fixes, and aligner tray handoffs don't pull kids out of class or parents out of work.
