A classic method to glow-up your teen's smile
The most common question we receive about teen braces is how much the appliances will disrupt their routine. Parents are worried about their teen’s comfort and don’t want to add braces to the challenges of adolescence. Advances in technology have significantly changed treatment. Nowadays, the uncomfortable and clunky braces that many people remember are a thing of the past. It’s much easier to align teeth with treatments that emphasize a convenient and more comfortable experience. We are proud to offer metal and clear Damon Braces for teens and clear aligners at Hess Orthodontics.

What are the benefits of teen braces?
Transforming your teen’s smile can improve their self-confidence, and it will also help their physical health. If left unaddressed, alignment issues can lead to cavities and gum disease. Because it is harder to clean asymmetrical teeth, plaque and food particles get trapped in these uneven surfaces. As these rotting bits of food gather in their mouth, they are more likely to develop cavities. Once teeth are in a traditional pattern, regular maintenance like flossing and brushing is more effective. Correcting an alignment will help you save money in the long run because you will avoid future issues.
Are there any drawbacks to teen braces?
It’s easier to get long-lasting results during a teen’s developing years. Keep these things in mind if you’re curious about getting tooth alignment for your teen.
- If wearing Damon Braces, they will need to avoid certain foods like sweets, potato chips, and nuts to prevent damage and discoloration
- Damon Braces require much more involved hygiene
- Although Damon Braces do not need conventional wire adjustments, there is a possibility of heightened mouth irritation or sensitivity following appointments.
In the past 30 years, orthodontic care has undergone an enormous transformation. It’s safer than ever to trust an expert with your alignment.
