As the leaves change and the year winds down, many families begin planning ahead. Fall is actually one of the best times to start orthodontic treatment—and here’s why:
- Holiday Breaks = Easier Scheduling – With school days off, it’s easier to fit in appointments.
- New Year, New Smile – Starting now means you’ll see noticeable progress by the time spring and summer arrive.
- Insurance Benefits – Many plans reset in January, so November is a smart time to maximize remaining coverage.
- Cooler Weather, Cozy Season – Adjusting to braces is easier when you’re at home enjoying warm, soft foods like soup and mashed potatoes.
Whether you’re considering braces or Invisalign, fall is a great time to begin the journey. By this time next year, you’ll be even more thankful for your smile!
