Overview: What You Need to Know

The teenage years—typically between ages 12 and 17—are the most common and biologically advantageous time for comprehensive orthodontic treatment. By this stage, almost all permanent teeth have erupted, yet the jaw bones are still actively growing and responsive to orthodontic guidance.

Addressing crowding, severe overbites, or crossbites during these formative years prevents irreversible tooth wear, speech impediments, and social self-consciousness.

At Dental Care of Anaheim, we treat teenagers with patience, empathy, and clear coaching on oral hygiene with brackets, ensuring treatment is an empowering, positive milestone.

Who May Benefit from Teen Braces?

  • Teens with permanent dentition displaying crowding, spacing, or improper bite alignment
  • Teens whose developing premolars or canines are erupting out of position
  • Adolescents experiencing difficulties with proper chewing or jaw joint discomfort
