Orthodontics for Teens in Northridge

Keeping Your Teeth Smiling with Straightforward Treatment Methods

Being a teenager is difficult enough as it is. At Holistic Orthodontics, we are here to support your teen, take some of the pressure away from their lives, and keep them smiling for many years to come. That is why our skilled team of orthodontics is here to create smiles that leave long-lasting impressions. At your initial consultation, we will fully assess your teen’s smile, determine what oral conditions they might currently have, and move forward with the best plan of action for their needs. We offer a variety of orthodontic options, so you can rest assured that even the pickiest teen will find a plan that makes them smile.

What Your Teen Can Expect From Our Orthodontic Treatments

Our skilled orthodontist, Dr. David Berrios, has been practicing in the Northridge area since 1995. He and our entire team are passionate about all areas of orthodontics, and we love being able to put smiles on our patients’ faces. Before we begin your teen’s orthodontic journey, we will make sure you are familiar with all of the options available. In addition to traditional metal braces, the orthodontic treatments we offer our patients include:

• Pitts 21 System

When it comes to your teenager, we know they want straight teeth, and they want them as soon as possible. Those yearbook pictures won’t take themselves, after all. The Pitts 21 system is one way we are able to give them that. With this system, patients have the opportunity to experience a faster treatment plan that is still effective.

• MyoBrace

MyoBrace gives your teen the chance to wear braces without actually having to wear braces, and these systems go beyond what traditional braces have to offer. They allow patients to adjust jaw shape, correct poor oral habits, and make other changes that help address the underlying causes of crooked teeth.

• Invisalign

Invisalign is an orthodontic process that involves wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten the teeth. They do not require your teen to wear any brackets or wires, and they have far less restrictions than metal braces.

Giving Your Teen a Million Reasons to Smile

Giving your teen the gift of an orthodontic treatment is truly priceless. You are giving them more than just “braces” – you are giving them the chance to enjoy a healthier smile for their lifetimes. Having a properly aligned smile can make a major impact on their quality of life. For one, straight teeth make flossing and brushing much simpler, and being able to practice oral hygiene will prevent health complications down the line and give your teen an additional confidence boost. Other benefits of orthodontic treatments include:

• Improved oral functioning
• Solution for missing teeth and gaps
• Solution for crooked smile
• Correction for improper and misaligned bites

One of the best parts of working with our team will be the trust and reliability you can place in us. From your teen’s initial consultation to the day we wrap up their treatments, we will be there to provide support and answer any questions that might arise. We understand that dental anxiety is common, but if your teen experiences any negative symptoms throughout the process, we will be there to correct the issue and make sure they have a million reasons to smile.
