Does this sound like you?

Teen hiding their smile

Do your teeth bother you? Do you avoid smiling in photos? Do you feel self-conscious when talking to your friends?

Common issues in teens: Crooked or spaced teeth, deep or open bite, misaligned jaw, teeth that don’t close properly.

Adolescence is the ideal time for treatment — growth is still your ally and results are fast.

Frequently Asked Questions from Teens

Do braces hurt?

A little discomfort for 2-3 days after placement and after each adjustment. It’s pressure, not real pain. Tylenol or Advil takes care of it.

How long will I wear my braces or aligners?

On average 18-24 months for a complete treatment. Some finish in 12 months, others in 30 months. We’ll give you a precise estimate at your consultation.

Can I play hockey or football with braces?

Absolutely! We provide a custom orthodontic mouthguard. With aligners, you can even remove them during games.

What foods should I avoid?

With braces: avoid popcorn, whole nuts, sticky caramels. With aligners: eat whatever you want! Just remove the aligners to eat.

How much does it cost?

Every case is unique. Costs are evaluated at the free consultation. Interest-free financing is available with affordable monthly payments.

Invisalign or SPARK: which one should I choose?

Invisalign and SPARK are the two aligner systems we use. SPARK offers slightly clearer trays, while Invisalign is the most recognized system in the world. Dr Benguira chooses the best one for your case.
