Braces for Teens in Greensboro, NC

Being a teenager can be challenging enough without adding the stress of the unknown? Now, teens and parents alike do not have to experience anxiety about orthodontic treatment. Our braces for teens ensure that every teenager can find a solution that they’re comfortable with. Straight A Orthodontics offers teen braces to the families of Greensboro, NC.

What are Braces?

Braces are an orthodontic appliance, which repositions the teeth. Braces can be used to straighten teeth, improve health and overall appearance. Traditional braces involve brackets and metal wires, but now there are more modern options to match your teen’s needs and personality.

Why Do Teenagers Get Braces?

It’s no secret that many teenagers get braces each and every year. Truthfully, it’s an effective and relatively short-term treatment, which benefits someone for their entire life. In fact, it’s estimated that 70 percent of teens get braces during some part of their teenage years, which would be like two out of every three students in math class. That’s a lot of beautiful, healthy smiles!

How Long Do Teens Need to Wear Braces?

The length of time that teens need braces will vary based on each person’s reasons for getting treatment and the amount of correction needed. You can shorten the amount of time you need to wear braces by going to the orthodontist regularly, as recommended, for adjustments.

For most teens, the length of time braces need to be worn ranges from about eight months to two years. Dr. Amir Aminoshariae will discuss your treatment plan with you at your first appointment.

Teen Braces Just for You

No two teens are alike, so why should they all have the same braces? We offer convenient options for teen braces to meet your lifestyle, personality, and goals for treatment. The type of braces for teens we offer at Straight Orthodontics include:

  • Ceramic (or clear braces)
  • Metal Braces
  • Colored Braces (use of colored bands on metal braces)
  • Invisalign® or clear aligners

Can’t I Wait Until I’m an Adult?

Why delay a more beautiful you? While it may seem like middle and high school are the wrong time to get braces, we can assure you that in college and adulthood, you’d wished you had. Life will continue to get busier, and you will continue to flourish as a teen and then adult. It’s time to have a smile that can grow with you, not that you will grow out of. Stunning smiles say a lot.

How Much Do Teen Braces Cost in Greensboro?

The cost for teen braces will vary based on your individual treatment plan. The cost will include your regular orthodontic visits and the total package for braces. Dr. Amir Aminoshariae is happy to offer in-office financing for qualified patients. We accept most major credit cards, insurance plans and offer financing for maximum convenience.
