My daughter is 9 and we’ve been coming here the last couple of years for “check ins” leading up to braces. They take x-rays and monitor how things are growing. Everyone is always SO kind and welcoming even though she has had zero work done yet. We’ll definitely be continuing our braces journey here when the time comes to get them on!
