While we certainly welcome patients of all ages to schedule a first visit to Hermanson Orthodontics, the American Association of Orthodontists recommends that the initial orthodontic evaluation should be performed at the first sign of orthodontic problems or no later than age 7. While the vast majority of children will not require any treatment at this age, early examination allows for early detection of a developing problem.
We provide a full range of orthodontic services in both of our office locations. Treatments range from minor corrections using removable or limited fixed appliances to comprehensive treatments using a complete set of braces. Some corrections can be achieved with a system of clear plastic aligners fabricated by Invisalign while other more complex conditions may require jaw surgery in conjunction with comprehensive orthodontic treatment.
Most orthodontic problems are best treated during the early teen years. Many of our young patients look forward to getting braces during this time when their peers are also wearing them. Picking which "colors" to put on the braces is typically a pretty exciting part of the process!
When treatment is started during the early adolescent years, many patients are finished with active treatment and are enjoying the benefits of a healthy smile before starting high school.Best results can often be achieved during early adolescence because the patient is growing during these years. The treatment plan can be designed to take advantage of growth to optimize the smile and bite.

More and more adults are now enjoying the benefits of orthodontic treatment. In fact, more than one in four of our active patients are adults. While most adults seek treatment to achieve that smile they've always dreamed of, some patients are referred by their general dentist when the positions of their teeth make it impossible for the dentist to restore the teeth properly.
