Braces for Kids: Why the First Visit Happens at Age 7

The earliest opportunity to plan for Braces for Kids is the first orthodontic visit at age 7 — when we can monitor your child’s bite, identify developing concerns and tailor treatment as their smile grows. Whether your child eventually needs traditional braces or Invisalign or clear aligners, the goal is the same: a confident healthy smile that lasts.

Invisalign or Clear Aligners for Kids

Not every child is a candidate for traditional Braces for Kids — sometimes Invisalign or clear aligners is the better fit. Invisalign First is the kid-specific version of the Invisalign system: custom-fitted, removable and nearly invisible, designed to straighten young teeth comfortably and adapt to your child’s growing smile.

Traditional Braces for Kids

When a child’s growing smile needs more correction than aligners can deliver, traditional Braces handle a wider range of bite, alignment and jaw concerns. At Pura Vida Orthodontics, Braces for Kids come in classic metal or low-profile clear braces — both designed to be comfortable, durable and effective from the first appointment.
