Best Braces for Teens | Avelle Orthodontics

Braces for
Teens

Confident Smiles Start Here

At Avelle Orthodontics, we believe that every teen deserves a confident, healthy smile. The teenage years are an ideal time to begin orthodontic treatment—your child is still growing, which makes it easier and faster to correct alignment issues. Our expert team specializes in providing braces for teens that are effective, affordable, and tailored to your teen’s needs and lifestyle.

Whether you’re looking for traditional dental braces for teens, clear options, or the best braces for teens that balance appearance with performance, Avelle Orthodontics has the solution.

Why Braces for Teens Matter

Teens are in a key phase of dental development. At this age, most of the permanent teeth have erupted, making it the optimal time to correct bite issues, spacing problems, or crooked teeth. Starting treatment during the teenage years can prevent more serious oral health problems later in life, including jaw discomfort, uneven wear on teeth, and long-term misalignment.

Orthodontic treatment does more than just improve appearance—it boosts confidence, supports oral hygiene, and helps create a foundation for lifelong dental health.

Types of Braces for Teens at Avelle Orthodontics

We understand that no two smiles are the same. That’s why we offer several types of braces for teens, each designed for specific needs and preferences. Whether your teen is concerned about visibility or treatment time, we have options to fit their goals and your budget.

1. Traditional Metal Braces

These tried-and-true dental braces for teens are stronger and more effective than ever. Made of high-quality stainless steel, today’s metal braces are smaller, more comfortable, and even customizable with colorful rubber bands.

2. Clear Ceramic Braces

For teens who are concerned about how they look, clear braces offer a more discreet solution. These braces are made of tooth-colored ceramic and blend in naturally. They work just like metal braces but with a subtle appearance.

3. Self-Ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces use a special clip instead of elastic bands to hold the wire in place. This results in less friction, fewer adjustments, and potentially a shorter treatment time—perfect for busy teens.

Affordable Braces for Teens

At Avelle Orthodontics, we believe orthodontic care should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we offer affordable braces for teens with flexible payment plans, insurance assistance, and transparent pricing. We work with families to make sure that cost never stands in the way of a confident smile.

You’ll receive a custom treatment plan during your teen’s consultation, complete with timelines, cost estimates, and financing options designed to fit your needs.

Braces for Adults: Because It’s Never Too Late

While we specialize in braces for teens, Avelle Orthodontics also proudly offers braces for adults. Whether you missed out on treatment as a child or need adjustments later in life, we have discreet, effective options for adults of all ages.

Many of our adult patients choose clear ceramic braces or aligners for a more subtle treatment. Just like our teen services, we offer flexible financing and personalized care plans to fit your lifestyle and budget.

Dr.Larson is a great orthodontist. You can tell that he cares about the patient as a person, throughout the whole treatment, and not just the first time he meets you.

Fabulous, state of the art, wonderful, informative, kind and literally the best ortho out there!

Esther V.

Dr. Larson treated my husband with Invisalign, and my four children with regular braces. We loved Dr. Larson for his kindness and friendliness, but above all, we appreciated him more because he is just an excellent doctor as an orthodontist. His knowledge, skills, perfectionism, professionalism is exceptional. Because of Dr. Larson’s treatment, my family have healthy and beautiful teeth. He did a wonderful job both with Invisalign and regular braces.I have to add the after care of his practice is also excellent. We have lost or broken our retainers multiple times, and they were prompt to make a new one so that we could resume using the retainer before the teeth start moving back.He truly cares for his patients and their well-being, and it shows in his work and the outcome. You will have a great experience with Dr. Larson and his staff as my whole family did.

The staff could not have been more kind and Dr. Larson gave my son a lot of attention and made him feel very welcome. It was a fun experience! We were very impressed! So glad we found out about this office.
