FAQs: Braces at Gordon Ranch Dentistry
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes! Your first visit is complimentary. Let’s talk about your options with no pressure.
Can my child get braces before high school?
Absolutely. Early orthodontic treatment can be beneficial for many children. We’ll help you determine the right timing for your child.
What if I’ve had braces before?
Whether you’re seeking a touch-up or comprehensive care, we offer solutions for adults who’ve had previous orthodontic treatment.
How Much Do Braces Cost in Chino Hills?
The cost of braces can vary depending on your unique needs and treatment plan. At Gordon Ranch Dentistry, traditional braces generally range up to $6,500. We accept most dental insurance plans, and our knowledgeable team will help maximize your benefits. For those without insurance or with high out-of-pocket costs, we offer flexible payment plans designed to fit your budget.
How Long Will I Need to Wear Braces?
Most patients wear braces for 18 to 24 months, but treatment times can vary depending on your smile goals, age, and the complexity of your case. Dr. Gordon will give you a personalized estimate during your consultation and guide you through every step of your orthodontic journey.
Do Braces Hurt?
You might feel some discomfort or soreness when braces are first placed and after adjustments—this is normal and usually lasts just a few days. Our team offers gentle care and helpful tips to ease discomfort, such as using orthodontic wax or over-the-counter pain relief. Most patients adjust quickly and find the process easier than expected.
What Foods Can I Eat with Braces?
With braces, it’s best to avoid sticky, chewy, or hard foods that could damage your brackets or wires. Favorites like pizza, soft tacos, rice bowls, and most pastas are perfectly fine! We provide every patient with a downloadable list of braces-friendly foods and can recommend local Chino Hills restaurants that offer great options.
What Happens at Each Appointment?
- Consultation: We evaluate your smile and discuss your goals.
- Placement: Braces are gently applied—no pain, just a little pressure.
- Adjustments: Every 4–8 weeks, we check progress and make minor changes to keep things moving.
- Removal: When you’re ready, we remove your braces and reveal your new smile!
You’ll always know what to expect, and our team is here to answer questions at every visit.
Will I Need Retainers?
Yes, wearing a retainer after braces is essential to maintain your beautiful results. Dr. Gordon will recommend the right retainer for you, explain how long to wear it, and discuss care instructions. Retainers are a small investment to protect your new smile—cost and options will be discussed before treatment is complete.
Can Adults Get Braces?
