Orthodontics Basics

Orthodontics can feel overwhelming at first but we are here to help make the subject easy to understand. We get asked a lot of the same questions over and over and we have tried to compile some resources to help the most common questions.

Why should my child see an orthodontist by age 7?

Does my child need an expander?

Does my insurance help with orthodontics?

These are some of the questions we will answer in the handouts below. We hope you find the information helpful. You will find many other resources about Braces, Invisalign, and Orthodontic Solutions on our website.

"Highly satisfied with my child's ortho procedure. The entire process has been seamless even with the pandemic. The website and patient portal is user friendly, but should you need to call the office for any reason, a staff member always answers in a friendly manner. The Ambridge office is stunning, it's like waking into a super hero museum. Everybody's favorite super hero can be found. Dr. Spokane has a great chair side manner, upbeat and friendly. My child was nervous at first but his fear quickly went away with the super comfortable atmosphere. I recommend Dr. Spokane to all my friends and family." Cymone Bronaugh
