More often than not, people will opt for braces during the teenage years - specifically between 11-16. The reason is quite simple, at this age the vast majority of us will have most if not all of our permanent teeth by then. it's also much easier to identify potential long term issues such as bad bites, crooked teeth or gaps at this age.

Another plus is that your body is growing at a remarkably quick pace, allowing your orthodontist to complete treatment much quicker as opposed to during your adult years. We have a wide range of orthodontic treatment available to your teenager - including traditional braces, see-through braces and Invisalign.

So, why should you opt for braces?

• Good appearance and healthy smile
