If you grew up with braces 20 or 30 years ago, you might remember it a certain way.
First came meeting your family orthodontist and getting your orthodontic checkup.
A week or two later came the appointment for braces, and it was always separate.
Good news: Braces are still around, but everything about them has changed for the better.
Why Things Are Better With Braces In 2025
Port Orange braces are better than ever.
Yes, braces are still around. And they still work basically the same way – they have the best track record of any orthodontic treatment. Now, however, they’re subtle and more discreet than ever. When you visit your board-certified orthodontist in Port Orange, Dr. Beauchamp can offer all-new options for braces.
First, all of the metal braces and clear braces offered by Beauchamp Orthodontics use a “small form factor.” That means they’re a lot more compact than traditional braces, but they still provide all the same healthcare benefits. And clear braces, using a see-through plastic material, are even harder to spot.
And, yes: no matter what kind of braces you opt for, you or your child can get them in one day.
Here’s how it works.
The Secret To A One-Day Braces Appointment In Port Orange
Dr. Beauchamp strives to build a family orthodontics practice that makes life easy for you and the kids.
For children, we keep things fun and friendly with games, surprises, and explanations they really understand, all without talking down to them. And for the adults, we knock down the barriers that used to get in the way of orthodontic treatment in Port Orange. One of the biggest ones is the inconvenience of multiple appointments!
Here’s how we keep our promise of same-day braces Port Orange can count on:
1. Your Quick Braces Consult
A fast orthodontic start begins with a consultation. You’ll get to meet Dr. Beauchamp and have all of your (and your child’s!) questions answered. We want to help you make an informed decision, but it still doesn’t take too long. In most cases, the initial chat will be only about ten to fifteen minutes.
If it’s your very first time seeing Dr. Beauchamp, there’s a little bit of intake paperwork to do. But you can do it before you arrive for your visit to save even more time. We strive to make sure appointments always start on schedule. You’ll never be kept waiting, even though our “waiting room” is designed to keep kids having fun.
2. Orthodontic Imaging Done Right
The next step is orthodontic imaging, it’s one of the most important things to get right. It helps to verify Dr. Beauchamp’s first impressions and ensure we can match the treatment to the patient. Most of the time, the imaging is done digitally. Several different pictures are taken to make up a 3D composite of teeth and gums.
Orthodontic imaging helps to verify whether the patient is a good fit for clear plastic aligners or if only braces will do the trick. Sometimes, imaging is supplemented with an impression of the teeth that helps us see your bite in action. It may seem like a lot, but it’s usually done in about 20 minutes.

Then comes decision time! With the information that comes from the orthodontic imaging, you can make a choice that works for your family: braces, aligners, or no treatment at all. We believe that orthodontic care makes people’s lives so much better, but you’ll never be pressured to go one way or the other.
If you decide to go forward, we will get started right away.
For metal braces or clear braces, the teeth will need to be cleaned and prepared. Then, the braces are carefully put into place. This takes about an hour, with the last ten or fifteen minutes dedicated to making sure that the fit is perfect. There may be a brief adjustment period, but there should be no discomfort after a few days.
If you decide to opt for clear plastic aligners over braces, your time wasn’t wasted, either.
Using the images that were already made of the teeth and gums, aligners can be fabricated in a few weeks. You pick them up from Dr. Beauchamp when they’re ready and get all the info you need to take care of them. Easy!
If you do decide on braces, it’s all done in two hours or less. That’s why we can confidently say: when you want braces without delay, call Beauchamp Orthodontics. To get started, just schedule your free consultation.
