Creating Confident Smiles Through Personalized Orthodontic Care
At Elegant Family & Pediatric Dentistry, we specialize in providing tailored orthodontic solutions for children, ensuring healthy development and beautiful smiles. Our expert team, led by Dr. Javidi and Dr. Parsafar, offers a range of treatments—from traditional braces to modern aligners, designed to address each child's unique needs in a comfortable, kid-friendly environment.
Traditional Metal Braces
Durable and effective, traditional metal braces use stainless steel brackets and archwires to correct a variety of alignment issues. They remain a popular choice for their reliability and efficiency in achieving desired results.
Ceramic Braces
For a more discreet option, ceramic braces utilize tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend seamlessly with natural teeth, offering the same effectiveness as metal braces with enhanced aesthetics.
Lingual Braces
Placed on the inner surfaces of the teeth, lingual braces provide an invisible solution for smile correction, ideal for children concerned about the appearance of traditional braces.
Clear Aligners
Removable and virtually invisible, clear aligners offer a flexible approach to orthodontic treatment, suitable for mild to moderate alignment issues. They allow for easier oral hygiene and fewer dietary restrictions.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your child's orthodontic journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, including digital imaging and a thorough examination to develop a personalized treatment plan. Our team ensures that both you and your child are informed and comfortable with the proposed approach.
Throughout the treatment, regular appointments will monitor progress and make necessary adjustments. We prioritize creating a positive experience, fostering a trusting relationship between your child and our dental team, and ensuring optimal outcomes.
