Healthy Smiles Start Here
Orthodontics for Children
The American Association of Orthodontists and Dr. Vargas recommend that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age seven. Don’t worry — this doesn’t mean your child will walk out of our office with braces!
This first visit is about checking that your child’s teeth and jaw are developing properly. In most cases, this starts an observational period where we monitor their smile as they grow. If we do spot potential issues, early orthodontic treatment (also called Phase 1) can guide jaw growth and prevent more complex problems later on. Starting treatment at the right time sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
How Early Treatment Works
Laying the Foundation
At your child’s first evaluation, Dr. Vargas will check for early signs of orthodontic issues.
If needed, Phase 1 treatment will focus on guiding the development of their jaw and teeth alignment over eight to 12 months. This ensures their smile has room to grow beautifully.
Even after Phase 1, we’ll continue regular checkups to monitor your child’s progress. If further treatment is needed, Phase 2 typically begins between ages 11 and 14 when most adult teeth have come in.
Precision With Phase 2
Phase 2 treatment completes the process, aligning teeth and jaws for a healthy, functional, and confident smile.
Whether using braces or clear aligners, we’ll design a personalized treatment plan to bring out the best in your child’s smile.
Guiding Your Teen Through Treatment
Orthodontics for Teens
The teenage years are the ideal time for orthodontic treatment. Whether they’re starting treatment for the first time or moving into Phase 2, we make the process seamless and effective.
A confident smile does more than just look good — it helps teens feel good, too.
At Vargas Orthodontics, we create personalized plans to fit their busy lives, whether they’re in the classroom, on the field, or hanging out with friends.
Smiles That Grow With Them
As teens grow, their smiles are growing, too! Orthodontic care during this stage ensures teeth and jaws develop correctly, preventing future dental problems and helping them enjoy a healthier smile for life.
Confidence in Every Moment
From yearbook photos to big presentations, a confident smile makes every moment better. Orthodontic treatment during these formative years helps teens face the world with pride and poise.
It’s Never Too Late for a Beautiful Smile
Orthodontics for Adults
Orthodontic care isn’t just for kids and teens. Many adults are choosing braces or clear aligners to improve their smiles, boost confidence, and maintain their oral health.
