No matter your age, our team is here to help you enjoy the benefits of a beautifully aligned smile.
Orthodontic Care for Children: Building a Strong Foundation
An early orthodontic evaluation can play an important role in your child’s long-term oral health. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic checkup around age seven, when developing teeth and jaws can be carefully assessed. Early treatment can help guide jaw growth, address bite concerns, and create space for incoming permanent teeth. Many children enjoy choosing colorful braces and watching their smile transform along the way. At American Canyon Orthodontics, our doctors focus on creating a fun, supportive environment where young patients feel comfortable, confident, and excited about their orthodontic journey.
Orthodontic Treatment for Teens
For many teens, orthodontic care fits naturally into this stage of life because the adult teeth have erupted and the jaw is still developing. At American Canyon Orthodontics, Dr. Nichelini, Dr. Cozin, and Dr. Shamoun offer a range of treatment options, including traditional braces, clear braces, and Invisalign Teen. We understand that teenagers have busy lives, so our team works with families to find a treatment solution that complements school, sports, social activities, and everything in between.
Orthodontic Care for Adults
It’s never too late to improve your smile. More adults than ever are choosing orthodontic treatment to enhance their oral health, boost their confidence, and address concerns that may have developed over the years. Whether you’re looking to correct crowding, spacing, or bite issues, our doctors will create a treatment plan tailored to your goals. With today’s discreet orthodontic options, including clear aligners and less noticeable braces, achieving the smile you’ve always wanted can fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.
Frequently Asked Questions About Braces in Vallejo
At what age can someone start orthodontic treatment with braces?
We recommend an initial orthodontic evaluation around age seven to monitor how a child’s teeth and jaws are developing, although comprehensive treatment often begins later when most permanent teeth have come in. Since every smile grows differently, we tailor our recommendations to each patient’s unique needs. And for adults, it’s never too late to achieve a healthier, more confident smile. Orthodontic treatment can be successful at virtually any age, helping patients enjoy lasting improvements in both appearance and oral health.
Do braces work differently for children, teens, and adults?
Orthodontic treatment can be effective at any age, but the approach is often tailored to where you are in life. Younger patients may benefit from natural growth and development, while adults may require a more customized plan that works around existing dental restorations, careers, and busy schedules. At American Canyon Orthodontics, we create personalized treatment plans for children, teens, and adults alike. Thanks to modern orthodontic technology, today’s treatment options are more comfortable, convenient, and predictable than ever, making it easier to achieve a healthy, confident smile at any stage of life.
What types of braces are available for different age groups?
At American Canyon Orthodontics, we offer treatment options for patients of all ages. Children may benefit from early orthodontic care to support healthy growth and development, while teens can choose from traditional braces, clear ceramic braces, or Invisalign Teen. Adults often prefer the discreet look of clear aligners, but braces remain a reliable option as well. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals, lifestyle, and needs to help you find the treatment that’s the best fit for your smile.
How long does treatment take at different ages?
Many people think orthodontic treatment automatically takes longer for adults, but the complexity of the case is usually a much bigger factor than age. While younger patients may see slightly faster tooth movement because they are still growing, treatment times are often similar across age groups. Mild to moderate cases may take about 12 to 18 months, while more comprehensive treatment can take 18 to 24 months or longer. For children who need early orthodontic care, the first phase of treatment is often completed within 9 to 18 months. During your consultation, our doctors will evaluate your smile and provide a personalized timeline based on your specific needs and treatment goals.
Are there special considerations for adult braces that differ from children's treatment?
Orthodontic treatment for adults often calls for a personalized approach, especially when crowns, bridges, or implants are already in place, which is why American Canyon Orthodontics coordinates with your general dentist as needed and evaluates your gum and bone health before getting started. Many adults choose clear aligners or other low‑profile options that blend easily into daily life, and our team’s extensive experience with adult care ensures your treatment plan is thoughtfully tailored to your goals, lifestyle, and dental needs for healthy, lasting results.
