Orthodontics for Every Stage of Life
At Di Battista Kornbluth Muller, we combine advanced technology with a personalized touch to create healthy, confident smiles for patients of all ages.
Children: A Proactive Start
The American and Quebec Associations of Orthodontists recommend a first screening by age 7. While many children won’t need immediate braces, early evaluation allows us to monitor growth and intervene only when necessary.
- Why start early? We can correct structural issues that are difficult to fix once growth is complete.
- Two-Phase Treatment: If early intervention (Phase I) is needed, it often simplifies future treatments, ensuring a more stable and functional result once permanent teeth arrive.
- The “Parent” Standard: Our philosophy is simple: we never recommend a treatment we wouldn’t choose for our own children.
Teens: Building Confidence
The “braces years” are a rite of passage, but the technology has changed. Most teens begin treatment around age 11 or 12, capitalizing on natural growth spurts to align teeth and balance facial profiles.
- Modern Options: We use state-of-the-art materials—from traditional braces to discreet clear aligners—tailored to your teen’s lifestyle.
- Personalized Timelines: Every smile is unique. During your consultation, we provide a precise estimate based on the complexity of the case.
- A Lifelong Asset: A healthy smile isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s a boost in self-esteem that carries them into their professional and social future.
Adults: It’s Never Too Late
Orthodontics isn’t just for kids. In fact, adults make up a significant portion of our practice. Whether you’re looking to prevent wear, improve gum health, or finally get the smile you’ve always wanted, we have a solution.
- Discreet Solutions: Between Invisalign® and clear ceramic braces, we offer treatments that fit seamlessly into your professional life.
- Health & Longevity: Straightening your teeth helps prevent premature wear and makes maintaining gum health much easier as you age.
- Integrated Care: For complex cases involving missing or broken teeth, we work closely with your general dentist to ensure a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach.
