FAQs About Our Katy Orthodontic Services
What age should my child first see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early visits allow us to monitor jaw growth and identify potential alignment issues before they become more complex.
Do you offer orthodontic treatment for adults?
Yes. We offer a full range of adult orthodontic services, including clear aligners, discreet braces, and options for orthodontic relapse. Treatment plans are tailored to your goals, lifestyle, and schedule.
What’s the difference between braces and aligners?
Braces are fixed to the teeth and ideal for moderate to complex cases. Clear aligners are removable and nearly invisible, often used for mild to moderate correction. We’ll help you decide which is best based on your smile and goals.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Treatment time varies by case. Mild alignment can take as little as 6–12 months, while comprehensive correction may take 18–24 months or longer. We’ll provide a detailed timeline during your consultation.
Does insurance cover orthodontics?
Many dental insurance plans offer partial coverage for orthodontic treatment — especially for children and teens. Our team will help verify your benefits and explain your options during your first visit.
