Dr. Chethan and the American Association of Orthodontics recommend children are seen by an orthodontist at age seven. When your child visits our office, we will take baseline records. Dr. Chethan will monitor their growth and development to make sure teeth are coming in right and bones are forming correctly. There is never a charge for these visits.

Every treatment plan is customized to meet the patient’s individual needs. Because each case is custom, the cost of treatment varies from patient to patient.
