When you think of braces, you might picture traditional metal ones. However, modern metal braces are far from the bulky designs of the past. Today's metal brackets are significantly smaller, more comfortable, and streamlined. They are incredibly durable and effective for treating a wide variety of orthodontic concerns, making them a reliable choice for achieving excellent results. Advanced archwires now utilize your body heat to move teeth more efficiently and with less discomfort than ever before.

Ceramic braces offer a more aesthetic alternative to metal. They function similarly to traditional braces but feature brackets that are either clear or tooth-colored, blending seamlessly with your natural smile. We can even use tooth-colored wires, making these clear braces an exceptionally discreet option for patients who desire all the benefits of fixed orthodontic treatment with a less noticeable appearance.

You already have so much on your plate: grades, friendships, endless activities, and the occasional worry about questionable fashion choices (or potential neck tattoos!). Here at Swenson Orthodontics, we want you to leave their smile to us.
While many people associate orthodontics with teenage years, the truth is, an earlier evaluation can make a significant difference in your child's smile journey. At Swenson Family Orthodontics, serving Lewiston, Idaho, Clarkston, Washington, and the entire Lewiston-Clarkston Valley, we often see patients later in life and realize how much simpler and shorter their braces treatment could have been with early intervention.
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) strongly recommends that every child have their first check-up with an orthodontic specialist no later than age 7. This initial visit isn't necessarily about getting braces right away, but about proactive assessment and planning.
