Dr. Brad Gauthier and our experienced team are dedicated to providing the most advanced and comfortable care in the region. If you are searching for a trusted orthodontist in Rochester who combines cutting-edge technology with personalized attention, your journey starts here.
Why Teenage Years Are the Perfect Time for Treatment
Adolescence is when most of the permanent teeth have erupted and the jawbones are still actively growing. This critical period allows us to correct complex issues efficiently, guiding the teeth and jaws into their optimal positions faster than in adulthood. Addressing problems like severe crowding, spacing, and bite irregularities now ensures better long-term oral health and prevents potential issues later in life.
Treatment during this phase often focuses on:
Discover Modern Treatment Options for Teens
We offer a diverse range of orthodontic solutions, ensuring every teen receives a plan tailored specifically to their needs, activity level, and aesthetic preferences. Our approach moves beyond one-size-fits-all solutions to deliver truly customized results.
Traditional and Advanced Braces
Modern metal braces are smaller, flatter, and more comfortable than ever before. We utilize high-quality materials to ensure efficient movement and durability throughout treatment. For those seeking the ultimate in personalization, we proudly offer the latest in digital bracket technology.
Custom 3D Printed Lightforce Braces
Lightforce technology represents the gold standard in customized treatment. Unlike traditional brackets, Lightforce braces are 3D-printed specifically for the unique shape of each of your teen’s teeth. This personalization means better bracket fit, more comfortable tooth movement, and often, shorter treatment times.
Clear Aligners for Adolescents
For teens who prefer a more discreet option, clear aligners are highly effective. We feature both Spark Aligners and our own RO Custom Aligners. These aligners are nearly invisible and removable, allowing teens to eat their favorite foods and maintain normal brushing and flossing routines. Clear aligners work best for motivated teenagers who can commit to wearing them for 20-22 hours per day.
The Rochester Orthodontics Difference
Choosing the right orthodontist in Rochester means selecting a partner in your family’s health. At our practice, you benefit from a commitment to innovative technology and patient-first care.
We prioritize using advanced digital scanning instead of outdated, messy molds for all our patients, ensuring the diagnostic process is quick and comfortable. Our use of customized appliances, from Lightforce to RO Custom Aligners, is what truly sets us apart, leading to more predictable and often faster outcomes. We serve the Rochester community with a team focused on creating a fun, welcoming atmosphere where every teen feels comfortable and understood.
