Braces for every age

When should my child get braces?

The best time for braces is around ages 11 to 13, when almost all of the adult teeth are in and kids are still growing. Growth lets us correct bite and jaw problems and can help avoid pulling teeth or jaw surgery later.

Kids 10 and under with crowding or bite problems may benefit from early treatment first, from $1,999.

Braces for teens

The teen years are the most common time for braces. Teens can choose metal braces or clear braces that blend in with their teeth.

Adjustments are about every 8 weeks, and we show your teen how to brush, floss and eat with braces, and how to protect their smile during sports.

Rather not have brackets? Many teens do well with Invisalign. See Invisalign in Calgary

Braces for adults

It’s never too late for a straight smile, and more adults get orthodontic treatment every year. Clear braces blend in with your teeth, hidden braces sit behind them, and Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners.

Braces questions

How much do braces cost in Calgary?

Complete braces treatment at Family Braces starts from $4,999, all-inclusive: records, the braces, all adjustments, emergencies and repairs, and retainers after treatment. We offer 0% interest payment plans from $149/month. Early treatment for kids 10 and under starts from $1,999.

How long do braces take?

Most braces treatments take 14 to 24 months, depending on how much the teeth need to move.

Do braces hurt?

Putting braces on takes no needles, no anaesthetic and no drills, and we use gentle, low-force wires. Teeth can feel sore for a few days after your braces go on or after an adjustment, and soft foods help.

What age should my child get braces?

The best time for braces is around ages 11 to 13, when almost all of the adult teeth are in and kids are still growing. A free exam will tell you whether your child needs treatment now, later, or early treatment first.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book a free exam with our orthodontists directly, online or by phone.

Does insurance cover braces?

Yes, if your dental plan includes orthodontic coverage. We direct bill your insurance, and any amount your plan doesn't cover can go on a 0% interest payment plan, from $149/month.

At any of our 6 Family Braces clinics: NW Calgary (Beacon Hill), NE Calgary (Deerfoot City), SW Calgary (Shawnessy), SE Calgary (McKenzie Towne), West Calgary (Westhills) and East Calgary (East Hills).

Will I need retainers?

Yes. Retainers hold your teeth in their new position, and you wear them at night.

Can adults get braces?

Treatment was long and sometimes frustrating but we made it through. We appreciate that the staff explained every step and worked with our dentist and specialists as needed to achieve the end result. The financial transparency and the option to pay up front and not have any surprise bills through our time with Family Braces was a huge perk. Thank you Family Braces! 🙂

We had a wonderful experience at this dental clinic! The entire team has been amazing, professional, friendly, and welcoming from the very beginning. My son had his braces put on, and everything went smoothly. The staff took the time to explain the process, answer our questions, and make sure he felt comfortable throughout the experience.(Marie/Christian)
