What is the Best Age for Orthodontic Treatment?
When should you start orthodontic treatment in New Jersey? The American Association of Orthodontics (AAO) recommends that children receive an orthodontic screening by age 7. Dr. Chelian can screen for any dental issues and work with you to formulate a treatment plan which can preemptively correct problems before they can get severe.
For the best orthodontic treatment, children should ideally have a good combination of baby teeth and mature teeth. Because each child develops at a different pace, your child may not be ready for treatment right away. Braces could still be a few years away, but an early evaluation can be helpful in knowing what to expect and how to better prepare your child for future treatments. Knowledge is power and by obtaining an early consultation Dr. Chelian can review with you any potential growth and development concerns of the jaws and teeth thus empowering you to know what to expect as your child continues to grow.
Orthodontic Treatment Available for Kids, Teens, and Adults
Orthodontic treatment for children can be beneficial in a number of ways. Dr. Chelian is skilled at identifying minor issues with jaw growth and emerging teeth. He can also do a bite check and correct bad habits that can affect the teeth and jaw, such as thumb sucking.
Orthodontic treatment for teens is also important. Teenage and pre-teens have an advantage in obtaining a great smile since they are also experiencing some level of jaw growth and facial changes associated with puberty. Dr. Chelian can take advantage of growth and development of facial structures to not only improve the position of the teeth but also jaw structure. The early teen years are the best times for Dr. Chelian to identify issues associated with
-
Jaw alignment
-
Bite
-
Gaps
-
Overcrowding
You’re never too old to gain the smile you desire, so if you missed out on orthodontic treatment during your childhood, today is the next best time for it.

Cost of Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment in New Jersey may be more expensive than in other areas of the country. While the national average cost for adult braces is between $4,800 and $7,135, you may pay $5,000-$10,000 in New Jersey. This is due to factors such as location, competition, orthodontist experience, and the severity of your case.
