We offer outstanding orthodontic care for kids, teens, and adults in Niceville, Miramar Beach, Santa Rosa Beach, Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa Island, Destin and surrounding areas. We know that each patient has unique desires, expectations and treatment needs. At Stubbs Orthodontics, we will help you achieve your ideal smile.As an orthodontist, Dr. Stubbs encourages parents to bring their kids in for a free consultation around the age of 7. While not every child needs braces at this age, we can more easily detect and correct teeth and jaw alignment issues at this age.
If these issues are caught early in the growth and development of your child, problems like overbites or underbites, crooked or crowded teeth, and incorrect jaw position or disorders of the jaw joints are corrected. Left untreated, these problems can scale and in some instances require extractions. However, more often than not and due primarily to financial circumstances, orthodontic treatment is generally addressed much later in life as our kids become teens, and crooked or crowded teeth have become a part of their identity. At Stubbs Orthodontics, we understand this, and this is why Orthodontic Braces for Teens is such a big part of our practice.
Many teens will sometimes reject the idea of braces. Let’s face it, what teenager wants to be known for a mouth full of wires? Luckily, today due to advances in orthodontic technology we have many options to quickly treat our patients in a more aesthetic manner. These treatment options include Metal braces/Traditional Braces, Ceramic Braces, Lingual braces and Invisalign.
