Personalized orthodontic treatments for all ages

When looking into orthodontic treatment for yourself or your child, it’s common to wonder what’s the best age to begin braces or Invisalign treatment? There is no single age, as the mental and physical health benefits of orthodontic treatment span all ages!

The most common ages for orthodontic treatment are the teenage years, specifically between 12-16 when most adult teeth are present. However, we recommend your child have their first orthodontic evaluation at age 7, when it’s still early enough in their development to identify any issues that may require early treatment. And now more than ever, adults are seeking orthodontic treatment with our discreet and modern braces and Invisalign clear aligners for a variety of aesthetic and health reasons.

To start your smile transformation, we encourage you to visit with our expert team for a free consultation which includes no-cost digital X-rays, 3D mouth scan, and one-on-one time with our specialized doctor. We’ll then develop a custom braces or Invisalign treatment plan to fit your lifestyle and achieve the smile results you’re looking for.

Here’s what our patients have to say

Mollie L.

I love all of the girls that work at Kristo Ortho! They have made the last 8 years amazing and I love that my smile now represents my personality.

Juliea Ann W.

Kristo Orthodontics staff are always very kind and understanding. They will make you feel welcome and give the best care they can. They’re not afraid to communicate with their patients, which I appreciate. My favorite part about their treatment is the communication and productivity. They’re always on top of things and get things done quickly and efficiently.

Evan P.

Great staff!! Kristo treats my son and makes him feel very comfortable, like he is the only child there.

Caden B.
