We know starting orthodontic treatment can bring up lots of questions, especially if it’s your first time exploring braces or aligners. Here are some of the most common things patients in Childress and nearby communities ask when planning their smile journey.
For many teens, yes. As long as they’re responsible with wearing their trays consistently, clear aligners can be a comfortable and discreet alternative to traditional braces. We’ll help determine whether aligners are the right fit.
Not at all. Many athletes and musicians wear braces or aligners successfully. We’ll offer tips for comfort and provide mouthguards when needed to protect your smile.
In some cases, it can. Airway-focused orthodontics may support better breathing patterns and improved sleep quality, especially for children. During your exam, we’ll discuss whether this type of treatment could benefit you or your child.
