Treatment Options for Growing Smiles?
Every child’s smile develops at its own pace. Dr. Younis will evaluate your child’s teeth, bite, and growth to recommend the treatment option that fits their needs best.
METAL BRACES
Metal
Durable, reliable, and great for active kids and teens, metal braces are a trusted way to guide teeth into healthier positions.
CLEAR BRACES
Ceramic
Clear braces work like metal braces but use tooth-colored brackets for a more subtle look, which some teens may prefer.
INVISIBLE ALIGNERS
Clear Aligners
For responsible teens, clear aligners can offer a flexible, removable option for straightening their smile.

I Couldn't Be Happier
I got my braces off yesterday with a total of a year and a half treatment for adult braces. I couldn’t be happier with the results! Everyone at the office is extremely friendly and put in effort to make your experience the best as possible. I highly recommend Younis to anyone in need of braces.
