Braces are most effective during teenage years, when growth makes orthodontic treatment faster, smoother, and more predictable.
Adolescence is the most common time for orthodontic treatment. At Bankstown Orthodontics, Dr Kevin Roberts uses this key growth stage to guide teeth and jaws into alignment efficiently, giving teens the confidence of a healthy, attractive smile.
Teenage growth supports orthodontic treatment, making braces more effective and helping achieve long-lasting, stable results.
As permanent teeth emerge and jaws continue to grow, this stage provides the perfect opportunity to correct alignment and bite issues. Treating in the teenage years often means faster results, less complex treatment, and a more predictable outcome.

Correcting Jaw Alignment for Better Function
