For All Ages
Orthodontic Care for Every Stage of Life- Espeically Adults
At Koterwas Orthodontics, we believe it’s never too late to achieve a healthy, confident smile. More adults than ever are seeking orthodontic treatment, and we’re proud to offer discreet, comfortable options tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're interested in Invisalign®, ceramic braces, or traditional metal braces, we’ll help you find the right solution to fit your lifestyle and goals.
Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for teens—one in five orthodontic patients is over 21, and we specialize in helping adults improve their oral health, bite function, and self-confidence.
Many adults seek treatment for reasons such as:
-
Crowded or spaced teeth causing discomfort or difficulty cleaning
-
Jaw pain or pressure due to misalignment
-
A desire for a more confident smile
-
Completing treatment they started in childhood but never finished
-
Modern orthodontic options—like clear aligners and low-profile braces—are more discreet and comfortable than ever. Plus, straighter teeth are easier to clean and help reduce the risk of gum disease and tooth wear.
-
Our team understands the unique challenges adult patients face and will work with your busy schedule to ensure convenient, personalized care every step of the way.
Early Orthodontic Treatment for Children
While adult care is a growing focus, it’s still important to monitor your child’s development. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic visit by age seven. At this age, children have a mix of baby and adult teeth, allowing us to detect and address jaw or bite problems early—often avoiding more invasive treatments later.
Benefits of early treatment include:
-
Guiding jaw growth and proper eruption of permanent teeth
-
Creating space for crowded teeth
-
Avoiding extractions later
-
Correcting thumb-sucking or early speech issues
Signs your child may need an evaluation:
-
Early or late loss of baby teeth
-
Difficulty chewing or biting
-
Crowded, misplaced, or blocked teeth
-
Mouth breathing or jaw clicking
-
Teeth that don’t meet properly or at all
Orthodontics For Teens
Braces are a common part of adolescence, and we offer many teen-friendly options that combine function with style. From colorful brackets to clear aligners, we make the experience as smooth and fun as possible.
Treatment times vary depending on growth and cooperation, but our team will keep teens (and parents) informed and supported throughout.
Treatment Options for All Ages
At Koterwas Orthodontics, we offer a range of treatment options to suit every age and lifestyle:

Whether you’re 7 or 70, our goal is the same—to help you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile you deserve with care that’s compassionate, customized, and convenient.
