It depends on the severity, but it’s a good idea to be evaluated around the age of 7 or 8. Treatment usually begins when the child has lost most of their baby teeth and most of their permanent teeth have grown in – usually between the ages of 8 and 14.

Clear ‘aligners’ are a popular option and they can help with everything from a mild case of crooked teeth to major malocclusions, overbites or underbites. You may also want to consider Invisalign, which is a virtually transparent aligner.

Veneers, which are thin slices of porcelain attached to the existing tooth with a resin and are recommended for gaps, poor color and shape or fractured teeth. Braces are for fixing severely crooked or overcrowded teeth by exerting constant pressure using wire-based appliances for an extended period of time.

Every mouth is different and depending on how severe the problem is, braces are usually worn for between one to three years.

This will depend entirely on how severe your problem is. Both metal and clear aligners are typically worn for between one to three years. The decision for you will come down to price and appearance. Many people like that clear aligners are more discreet and they can be removed.

Childhood is the optimum time to get braces, but the American Association of Orthodontists says that one out of five orthodontic patients are adults. It may take a little longer to fix an orthodontic problem as an adult, but poor tooth alignment can cause many problems that make the time spent wearing braces worth it.
