Braces Treatment

Perfect Alignment, Lasting Results

Perfect Alignment, Lasting Results

Braces are more than a cosmetic choice – they create the foundation for a lifetime of healthy, confident smiles.

At Dentistry For Children at Mt. Kisco, our orthodontic team guides parents and children through every step of treatment, ensuring the process is safe, effective, and easy to manage.

Why Braces Matter

Orthodontic care is about much more than straight teeth. Proper alignment helps your child
Correct bite issues early, preventing crowding and misalignment
Reduce risks of tooth decay, gum disease, and jaw discomfort
Improve chewing, speech, and long-term oral health
Build confidence through a balanced, beautiful smile

Our Approach:

Every child’s smile is unique, which is why we personalize every treatment plan.
Our orthodontic specialists:

Conduct a thorough evaluation of teeth, jaw, and growth patterns
Create a customized plan using the most effective treatment type
Educate families on what to expect and how to maintain results

We believe orthodontics should be a positive experience – comfortable, educational, and rewarding from start to finish.

Types of Braces

We offer modern orthodontic options designed for every child’s comfort, appearance, and treatment goals.

Traditional Metal Braces

Durable, reliable, ideal for complex cases that need strong correction power.
Benefits: Proven results for children and teens; fast, predictable adjustments.

Ceramic Braces

Designed to blend with natural tooth color for a subtle look.
Benefits: Less visible than metal braces, with equally effective results.

Clear Aligners (Invisalign)

Removable, comfortable, and nearly invisible trays that gradually shift teeth into alignment.
Benefits: Easy cleaning, flexible wear, and a modern alternative to traditional braces—ideal for mild to moderate cases.

Your Journey to a Confident Smile

Braces are a team effort between your child, our specialists, and you. With consistent care and open communication, treatment stays on schedule and results last a lifetime.
