Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the right orthodontic practice is an important decision for your family. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions people in Kent, WA ask when exploring orthodontic treatment options for themselves or their children. These quick, easy-to-read FAQs are designed to help you feel confident and informed as you begin your smile journey.
How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?
Treatment time varies depending on your age, the complexity of your case, and the type of orthodontic system used. Many patients in Kent, WA complete treatment within 12–24 months, though some may finish sooner with advanced technologies that help guide teeth more efficiently. At your consultation, you’ll receive a customized estimate based on your smile needs.
What makes an orthodontic specialist different from a general dentist?
Orthodontists complete additional years of specialized training focused exclusively on diagnosing and correcting bite issues, tooth movement, and facial growth patterns. This advanced expertise allows orthodontists to create more precise, personalized treatment plans, especially for developing smiles, complex cases, and long-term stability.
Is orthodontic treatment affordable?
We believe every family deserves access to high-quality orthodontic care. Our Kent, WA practice offers flexible payment plans, interest-free financing, and options that work with many dental insurance providers. During your visit, we’ll review all costs clearly so you feel confident about your investment.
How do I know which treatment option is best for me or my child?
Every patient’s smile is unique. During your complimentary consultation, we evaluate tooth alignment, bite function, facial balance, lifestyle needs, and treatment goals. From there, we recommend the options that fit you best, whether that’s traditional braces, clear aligners, or an advanced digital treatment system. Our goal is to guide you toward the solution that feels comfortable, effective, and aligned with your priorities.
Can orthodontic treatment improve oral health in addition to appearance?
Yes. Straighter teeth are easier to clean, which helps reduce the risk of cavities, gum disease, and uneven wear. Correcting bite issues can also improve chewing, reduce strain on the jaw, and support long-term dental stability. A beautiful smile is just one benefit, better oral function is another important outcome.
