Our Braces Options for Kids: Choose Your Style

Orthodontic care should be just as unique as your child. At Sherman & Briscoe Orthodontics, we offer two types of braces that combine comfort, effectiveness, and kid-friendly style — so your child can feel confident every step of the way.

Contemporary Metal Braces

Today’s metal braces are a far cry from the bulky versions of the past. Contemporary Metal Braces are designed with smaller brackets, smooth edges, and lighter materials that make treatment more comfortable and efficient than ever.

Why kids (and parents) love them:

• Highly effective for a wide range of bite and alignment issues
• Smooth, compact design for better comfort
• Custom color ties allow kids to personalize their look
• Proven track record of success — even in complex cases

For kids who need reliable, results-driven orthodontic care, Contemporary Metal Braces remain one of the most trusted options available.

ICONIX Braces

Looking for a more subtle option with the same great results? ICONIX Aesthetic Braces offer all the durability of traditional metal, but with a sleek, low-profile design and a unique champagne-colored finish that blends beautifully with natural teeth.

Why ICONIX Braces are great for kids and teens:

• Less noticeable than standard metal braces
• Durable enough to handle active lifestyles
• Stylish and modern design — great for confidence at school or on stage
• Perfect for image-conscious tweens and teens

ICONIX gives your child the freedom to smile proudly throughout treatment — without compromising on strength or effectiveness.

Why Start Braces Early?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. While most kids won’t start treatment that early, early evaluation helps our team spot potential issues before they become more complicated (or costly) to correct later.

Braces for kids can help:

• Guide proper jaw growth
• Improve alignment of incoming permanent teeth
• Prevent crowding and spacing issues
• Address bite problems early for better long-term results

At Sherman & Briscoe Orthodontics, we take a gentle, thoughtful approach to treating younger patients. We’ll never rush your child into braces — instead, we provide honest guidance and create a plan based on their growth, needs, and comfort level.
