At Alpine Smiles, we know that orthodontics plays a crucial role in creating a balanced, healthy smile and improving overall oral health for children and adults. With a range of orthodontic options available, we're here to guide you through every step of your orthodontic journey, from early evaluation to comprehensive treatment plans for teens and adults.
Invisalign for children (phase 1 treatment)
Our early orthodontic care for children often begins with Invisalign for Kids, also known as phase 1 treatment. This approach focuses on guiding the development of a child's teeth and jaw to create space for permanent teeth and address potential orthodontic problems early. By starting treatment at a young age, we can help prevent more complex dental problems in the future.

Invisalign for teens
Invisalign for Teens is a flexible, discreet option designed specifically for teens. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, removable, and custom-made to meet the growing needs of adolescent patients. This option allows teenagers to maintain their usual activities without the problems of fixed appliances. Invisalign for Teens is a popular choice, providing effective results without affecting lifestyle or self-confidence.

Fixed braces
For some patients, traditional fixed braces remain an effective orthodontic solution. Braces are suitable for those who may not be ideal candidates for aligners or those who prefer a fixed treatment approach. Although braces are highly effective, they require diligent care, regular adjustments, and compliance with dietary restrictions. Our team will discuss with you the pros and cons of fixed braces and Invisalign to help you determine the best choice based on your specific needs. It is important to stress that both treatments have a similar price, allowing you to choose the solution that best suits your preferences and your lifestyle.
Early assessments for permanent benefits
We encourage early orthodontic evaluations for children, typically around age 6, to identify any emerging issues related to jaw development, bite alignment, or tooth spacing. By resolving them early, we can often simplify future orthodontic treatment, ensuring better results with minimal intervention.
Whether they are children, teenagers or adults, Alpine Smiles offers orthodontic solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of each patient. Our comprehensive orthodontic care ensures that you and your family can enjoy safe and healthy smiles that last a lifetime.
