It’s almost never too late for adults to get straighter, more beautiful teeth with orthodontic treatment.
And children who could benefit from orthodontic care can get started early!
Kids, teens, and adults are all welcome at Beauchamp Orthodontics, our family orthodontic practice in Port Orange that makes orthodontic treatment easy for the whole family. We are always glad to help and will be there for all your orthodontic needs as you and your family grow and change over the years.
Let’s take a closer look at some of the best ways patients of all ages can get a better smile.
Kids Can Benefit from Two-Phase Treatment Early in Life
Two-phase treatment is one way to help a child get sound orthodontic health throughout life.
Not every child needs orthodontic care, but those who do can shorten their course of treatment by getting an early start. Two-phase treatment may begin with the use of orthodontic expanders to ensure that there’s enough space for a child’s full set of permanent teeth to grow in with plenty of room.
Once the teeth have arrived, the second phase of treatment can kick off with the use of metal braces or, in some cases, clear plastic aligners. These orthodontic appliances ensure that teeth will be straight and free of gaps, correcting any irregularities that might have appeared when the teeth emerged.
We make two-phase orthodontic treatment fun for kids. Dr. Beauchamp will always be glad to answer all your child’s questions and put their mind at ease. Plus, we can customize our braces using colored bands in all your little one’s favorite colors, so they will actually be proud and want to show off their new braces.
Orthodontic Treatment Options Anyone Can Enjoy
As the best Port Orange orthodontist for families, we strive to ensure everyone who visits us gets the highest standard of care. Dr. Beauchamp is a board-certified orthodontist in Florida, which means she’s undertaken lots of additional training and study beyond what’s required to practice as an orthodontist.
When she completed her board certification, Dr. Beauchamp set out to create a family orthodontic practice in Port Orange that would make life better for her patients. Let’s look at some of the most popular orthodontic treatments and how anyone can benefit – from kids to teens to adults.
Same-Day Braces
We know you’ve got a full and busy schedule, so why waste time with an extra visit? With same-day braces, you can get started on treatment the very same day you have your first orthodontic check-up. Dr. Beauchamp will let you know about any issues she’s identified and if you want to go forward, you can begin right away.
Many parents appreciate the option of same-day braces because it means they don’t have to go back and forth to extra appointments. Dr. Beauchamp will be sure to explain everything to your child so they feel ready to get their braces, including our “better than ever” small form factor metal braces that are extra discreet.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are the most subtle option available. They’re great for adults, image-conscious teens, and responsible kids whose orthodontic treatment goals can be reached without using braces. They are totally transparent and nearly impossible for others to see. In fact, you might not even notice them in the mirror.
One interesting thing about clear aligners is that they can be removed, unlike ordinary braces. That makes them incredibly convenient to clean. They can also be removed before engaging in sports, making it much simpler to use an athletic mouthguard. Another fascinating feature of Invisalign® is that the aligners are designed just for you thanks to a series of detailed digital images of your mouth.
Clear Braces
Clear braces are similar to metal braces and provide all the same treatment benefits you can get from metal braces too. They are special because they are made from a similar material as clear aligners. That means the best of both worlds. You can enjoy the reliable excellence of braces without the appearance of metal.
Metal Braces
Our metal braces are better than ever! Metal braces are recommended for any patient who has severe gaps or misalignment of their teeth, no matter their age. But our metal braces go a step further. Not only are they the most versatile orthodontic treatment, but they are smaller and use less material than traditional metal braces.
Beauchamp Orthodontics is always glad to welcome new patients to our orthodontic family. No matter if you need braces for a child, a teen, or an adult, we are here to meet all of your needs. Schedule your consultation and we’ll see you soon!
