What Is Orthodontic Treatment?

Is Orthodontic Treatment Right for My Child or Me?
Orthodontic treatment is effective for children, teens, and adults alike. Children are often evaluated around age 7 to catch developing bite issues early, though most active treatment begins once most permanent teeth have come in. Adults can pursue orthodontic treatment at any age, often using clear aligners for a more discreet option. Whichever appliance you choose, brushing after meals, flossing daily, and avoiding sticky or hard foods helps protect your teeth throughout treatment, and regular dental checkups and cleanings continue alongside your orthodontic visits.

Cost of Orthodontic Treatment
The cost of orthodontic treatment depends on the type of appliance, the complexity of the case, and the length of treatment. Sierra Springs Dental follows the Alberta Dental Association fee guide, and some orthodontic coverage may apply under certain insurance plans. Flexible payment plans are available, and we provide a personalized quote after your consultation.
