Early orthodontic treatment—also known as Phase 1—can help guide your child’s growing smile and prevent more serious issues down the road. Addressing alignment and jaw development early often leads to shorter, simpler treatment later.
Well-aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities, gum issues, and enamel wear. We use comfortable, efficient braces made just for kids—nothing like the ones you might remember. Let Braces-For-U help set your child up for a lifetime of healthy smiles!

Orthodontic treatment for children is all about early support and gentle guidance. Today’s braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more stylish than ever. Whether your child needs early intervention or full treatment, Braces-For-U will customize a plan just for them—keeping things easy, effective, and smile-worthy every step of the way.
Let's talk about braces for children...
Orthodontic problems aren’t always easy to spot—especially in growing children. Even if your child’s teeth look straight, there may be hidden issues with jaw development, bite alignment, or spacing that only a trained orthodontist can detect.
That’s why the American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first orthodontic check-up by age 7. At Braces-For-U, we offer a free evaluation to assess your child’s smile and development. Early detection can make future treatment simpler—or reassure you that everything is right on track.
The total self-pay cost for braces is generally $5,900, which includes everything your child needs for a successful treatment — no hidden fees.
If you have dental insurance, your out-of-pocket cost will be lower depending on your coverage.
We offer flexible payment plans to fit your budget, and your child’s initial consultation is completely free. We’re here to make great smiles affordable and stress-free!
Every child’s smile is different, so treatment time can vary. During your child’s free evaluation, we’ll perform a complete exam and take dental images to create a personalized treatment plan. Most children wear braces for 12 to 24 months, depending on their specific needs and how their teeth respond to treatment.
Yes, there are some food restrictions with braces—but they’re only temporary! Once treatment is complete, your child can enjoy their favorite snacks again.
In the meantime, it’s best to avoid foods that are hard, sticky, crunchy, or overly chewy—like popcorn, gum, caramel, and hard candies. We’ll provide a full list of foods to avoid (and safe alternatives) at the free evaluation.
Clear aligners can be a great option for some kids, especially during Phase 2 treatment when most or all of their adult teeth have come in. However, they do require a lot of responsibility. Aligners must be worn at least 22 hours a day, and since they’re removable, younger children may struggle to keep them in consistently. That can delay results or affect how well the treatment works.
At Braces-For-U, we’re here to guide you through the decision. During your child’s free evaluation, we’ll assess whether clear aligners are the right fit or if braces may be a better option at this stage. Either way, we’ll help you choose the path that sets your child up for long-term smile success.
Yes—once your child’s braces come off, wearing retainers at night is essential to keep their smile in place. Teeth can shift over time, even in kids, so retainers help protect all the hard work that went into straightening their smile.
To make things easier for families, we include a second set of retainers for free—a $500 value—just in case one gets lost or damaged. It’s all part of helping your child enjoy a healthy, confident smile for years to come.
