Orthodontics for All Ages
SERVICES
At Paramus Orthodontics, we believe everyone deserves a smile they feel great about, whether you’re 7 or 70. From your child’s first checkup to braces for your teen, or finally getting your own teeth straightened, we’re here to make the process smooth, comfortable, and even enjoyable.
A healthy smile is not just about looks; it can also boost confidence and improve your overall oral health.
Personalized Orthodontic Care for Every Age
We create personalized treatment plans for every age and stage of life. Whether your child needs early support, your teen wants something that looks cool, or you're looking for a low-key adult solution, we’ve got options that fit your needs and lifestyle. Plus, we use advanced technology to make treatment faster, easier, and more precise.
Orthodontics for Children (Ages 7–12)
Kids’ mouths grow quickly; that’s why the American Association of Orthodontists recommends a checkup by age 7. Early visits help us catch small issues before they become bigger problems. Early treatment might include:
Space maintainers or expanders to guide jaw growth
Partial braces to help with early alignment
Regular check-ins as adult teeth come in
We keep things fun and stress-free to help your child feel confident and relaxed at every visit.
Orthodontics for Teens
Traditional braces in fun colors
LightForce clear braces (custom 3D-designed and less noticeable)
Clear aligners for a removable, lifestyle-friendly option
The teenage years are full of smiles and selfies. We know confidence is very important during this stage, so we offer flexible, aesthetic treatment options that blend comfort with great results.
Teens can choose from:
We’ll help your teen find what fits their personality best, so they can smile, laugh, and live fully during treatment.
Orthodontics for Adults
It’s never too late for a healthy, aligned smile. In fact, nearly one in four orthodontic patients today is an adult. Whether you’ve always wanted to fix crowding or spacing, or your teeth have shifted over time, modern orthodontics offers comfortable and discreet ways to achieve a smile you’re proud of.
Adults often choose:
Clear aligners for convenience
Ceramic or clear braces for low-visibility treatment
LightForce custom braces, designed for speed and precision
We work around your schedule and comfort level, ensuring your orthodontic experience fits naturally into your life, not the other way around.
Why Orthodontic Treatment Matters at Every Age
Orthodontics isn’t just about looks; it’s about health, too. A properly aligned bite can:
Make brushing and flossing easier
Reduce the risk of cavities or gum disease
Prevent uneven wear and TMJ strain
Improve chewing, speech, and long-term dental stability
And yes… make your smile shine with confidence
When your teeth fit together the way they should, everything else feels better, too.
