Braces For Teens In Cranberry Township & McCandless, PA

Home » Braces » Braces For Teens In Cranberry Township & McCandless, PA

Being a teenager comes with a unique set of challenges, but poor orthodontic health doesn’t have to be one of them. At Bridge City Braces, we work to create beautiful smiles that help patients of all ages enjoy improved confidence and better self-esteem. Braces are a fantastic tool that can help teenagers achieve the smile of their dreams with ease. With both traditional metal and clear ceramic braces, your teen can choose the appliance that best suits their lifestyle. Our team is excited to help patients of all ages achieve better aesthetics and oral health through our top-of-the-line corrective treatments and care.

Benefits Of Braces for Teens

Braces offer teens an incredible opportunity to transform their smile and their confidence. At Bridge City Braces, we know that the journey to a straighter smile is filled with long-term benefits that go beyond just aesthetics. Here’s how braces can positively impact the lives of teens:

Braces work wonders in aligning teeth, correcting issues such as crowding, gaps, and bite discrepancies. This not only leads to a more harmonious smile but also ensures that teeth function optimally, making daily activities like eating and speaking much more comfortable.

Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the likelihood of plaque buildup, cavities, and gum disease. With braces, teens can look forward to better oral hygiene and a healthier mouth overall. This sets the foundation for maintaining excellent dental health well into adulthood.

A beautiful, straight smile can be a significant confidence booster for any teen. Feeling good about their appearance encourages teens to express themselves more freely and engage confidently in social situations. Braces help pave the way to a lifetime of smiles they can be proud of.

The benefits of having straight teeth extend far beyond the teenage years. With easier maintenance and a reduced risk of dental issues, teens who undergo orthodontic treatment are investing in their future oral health. A well-aligned smile not only looks great but also functions better, providing lasting benefits that will be appreciated for years to come.

At Bridge City Braces, we are committed to making the braces experience rewarding for both teens and their parents. Embrace the journey to a healthier, more confident smile — because the benefits are truly worth it!

FAQS

How Long Will I Wear Braces?
We know that not every teenager loves the appearance of metal braces, but we can guarantee you’ll love the results. When you invest your time into wearing and taking care of your appliance, you are working toward a dazzling smile that you can enjoy for a lifetime. Our team works to personalize your treatment to best serve your needs, so timelines vary from patient to patient. While there is no exact time, most of our patients get their braces off within one to two years. Once your braces come off, you will have a happier and healthier smile that will serve you well for years to come.
What Foods Will I Have To Avoid When Getting Braces?
To protect your treatment progress and honor your investment of time and money, it’s essential that you avoid certain foods that could potentially break your appliance. While in braces, we suggest you stay away from foods that are sticky, hard, or chewy so nothing will pull at your wires or break your brackets. It would be best if you tried only to eat foods that are soft and easy to chew. This way, you will enjoy a smooth treatment process that will lead you to your dream smile without any emergencies or roadblocks.
How Do I Care For My Teeth While Wearing Braces?
Taking care of your teeth while in braces is a great way to maintain your oral health and achieve a beautiful smile quickly. It’s essential that you keep your teeth as clean as possible while you’re in treatment so you don’t have any plaque build-up that could lead to tooth decay or even loss. While it can be challenging at first to brush around your brackets and wires, we suggest you take extra time during your oral healthcare routine to catch any food debris or harmful bacteria that may be hiding behind your appliances. You can use a flossing tool to get around your wires more efficiently and keep your smile healthy.
How Do I Protect My Mouth When Playing Sports With Braces?
Working toward your dream smile doesn’t mean you have to stop playing the sports you love. You can protect your treatment during games and practices by wearing a mouthguard that fits over your braces. This cushion will not only protect your braces from breaking if something hits your face, but it will also protect your mouth from becoming irritated from rubbing against the metal appliance.
How Much Do Braces Cost?
Because we customize our treatment plans to best suit our patients’ unique orthodontic needs and goals, the cost of braces varies. However, we don’t want there to be anything in the way of you getting the smile you’ve always wanted, so we’ve created flexible financing plans that can be personalized to your budgetary needs. In addition to these plans, we partner with most insurance providers to help cover treatment costs. During your free ortho consult, our team will be happy to go over financing options with you and figure out how you can best afford this life-changing treatment.

B. M.
Bridge City Braces has been fantastic for our family. We are new here and I have been wanting orthodontic work for years but after a couple of consults I was not very impressed with some other local clinics. I came here looking for myself and our children. I was immediately made to feel welcome, they have been nothing but accommodating, everyone is extremely helpful. Pricing is always a big part, and they were better priced than the other places I checked, and were flexible with payment options. All in all we will have myself, my wife most likely and 3 of our kids through here. So that to me would be a huge indication of the level of service here
Jessica B.
Bridge City Braces are an amazing place to go for your Orthodontic Care. I was nervous for my child and my child was nervous too. They soothed all of our concerns, and by the end of the day (because of some openings) we left with a full set of braces. The staff are welcoming and caring. They truly seem to be happy to be there. Thank you for taking care of my munchkin and her beautiful smile.
Janice D.
Love the experience for my daughter at Bridge City Braces. They were very informative, timely, and make it such a fun experience for the kids. They were also reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend taking your child there to get braces.
Natalie H
We couldn't be more impressed! Friendly ,knowledgeable staff who spent more than the alotted time to help us feel comfortable in choosing the right option for our daughter!

Jordan S.
Amazing. I went to Bridge City Braces to have a consultation for braces. Everyone was SO nice and made me feel comfortable. Im having my braces put on tomorrow and I’m excited! I know I’m in good hands here.
Grant C.
They've been nothing but accommodating and informative when helping my son. We discussed a plan and have had no pressure or awkward experiences in going through the treatment process. All of the employees are very nice and any time I've had to reschedule or had last minute emergencies they've made room and provided us with the care we needed.
Nancy P.
Bridge City Braces is amazing! They did a great job with our daughter’s braces, maintenance and her retainer. The staff is super nice and very informative about her care. Thank you Bridge City Braces!
Alexandra S.
BCB is a great place to take your kids! GKG is not the only game in town, yall! I can get an appointment for all 3 at a time! Bridge City did a superb job on my daughters smile, and already seeing a huge improvement in my boys’, and I’ve been so impressed with them that even I finally took the plunge to get Invisalign for my own smile, since remote working 100% of the time with a camera in my face has made me very self conscious!
