Why braces for teenagers?

Orthodontic treatment during the teen years is highly effective because the jaw and teeth are still developing, making it easier to guide teeth into their ideal positions. Early treatment can prevent more complex issues later in life and give teens the confidence of a straighter, healthier smile at an important stage in their development.
