Braces for
Children and Teens
Clinical studies have shown that children with beautiful smiles have greater self-esteem, smile more often and other people perceive them more favorably.
Although we can enhance a smile at any age, there are optimal time periods to begin braces. Beginning treatment at these times ensures the best result in the least amount of time and expense.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that every child have an orthodontic evaluation at the first sign of orthodontic problems or by age seven. One advantage of having Dentistry Just For Kids as your child’s dental home is that Dr. Solis monitors their growth and development at every visit. Early orthodontic intervention while your child is still growing can often prevent more difficult and costly problems later.
Meet Dr. Solis
Dr. Solis is no stranger to Dentistry Just for Kids, since he started as a patient at the office back in 1996 with Dr. Andrew Sewell and continued with Dr. Eugene Nolfi. Throughout college Dr. Solis worked at the office during his summers and developed a deep love for the office, its staff, and the patients so much so that he has come full circle to continue providing the best care possible like his mentors before him since 2019.
