WHO WE TREAT
Whether your age is 8 years old, 80 years old, or somewhere in between, we’d love to help you along your way to a beautiful smile.
PRE-TEENS
Perhaps your dentist has mentioned a concern about the way your child’s teeth are coming in, or maybe you are just curious about what could potentially lie ahead. We love seeing patients when they are still growing, still wiggling those baby teeth, and just starting to think about the possibility of braces. We can check to see if things are headed in the right direction, and then give you an idea about what may be coming in the future. On occasion, we recommend some limited treatment either in our office or with your dentist’s help to guide your child’s teeth into the ballpark. We base our recommendation on quality orthodontic research as well as years of experience. We welcome pre-teens to our office and encourage you to call the number below for a free consultation so we can take a look and make a plan.

TEENS
Dr. Welge himself had braces during his teen years (photos upon request), so he gets it. He gets the desire for a great smile and he gets the importance of straightening the teeth that are driving you crazy. Two of Dr. Welge’s own kids have had braces! For many teens, braces are a rite of passage. In addition to those silver braces with colored ties, we offer clear braces and nearly invisible clear aligners (like Invisalign) as an option for those patients who don’t want things to stand out as much, but still want to pursue orthodontics. If you have the desire to give your teen the gift of confidence that comes with a beautiful smile, call our office to set up a free consultation and we can get things started.

ADULTS
A great smile makes all the difference, no matter your age. We love helping you whether you just need a tune-up or if you have always been self-conscious about your smile. Maybe you didn’t have the opportunity to get it taken care of when you were younger (or didn’t wear that retainer) and you’re ready to gain the confidence you’ve been looking for. Our adult patients make up a significant percentage of our patient pool, and we love helping them achieve the results they’ve been wanting for years. Stop hiding your smile or wishing you had done something sooner. Call our office today, setup a free consultation, and let’s talk. The right time just might be now.
