Braces for Every Age & Every Smile
From a child's first phase of treatment to adults ready to invest in a healthier smile, we offer braces designed around your goals, your comfort, and your lifestyle.
Custom KLOwen Braces
Traditional braces use one-size brackets adjusted to fit you. Our custom braces flip that approach entirely. Using KLOwen's fully customized bracket system, every bracket is designed digitally for your individual teeth and your unique treatment plan, then placed with precision from day one. Because each movement is planned before your braces ever go on, treatment tends to be more efficient and more predictable.
The difference shows up in your calendar, too. Supported by KLOwen white paper data, custom braces in our office can mean 41% less treatment time, 45% fewer appointments, and 49% fewer broken brackets compared to traditional systems. Results vary from smile to smile, but the precision of a fully customized system gives Dr. Vakili remarkable control, especially for complex cases.
Clear & Ceramic Braces
Want the reliability of braces with a softer look? Clear ceramic braces blend beautifully with your natural teeth, offering a discreet option that many of our teen and adult patients love. You get the same precise, doctor-led treatment with brackets that keep a low profile in photos, at work, and everywhere in between.
Braces for Kids, Teens & Adults
Every stage of life deserves a confident smile. For growing children, early Phase I treatment can guide jaw development and create space for permanent teeth, often preventing more complex issues later. Teens benefit from efficient, comfortable treatment designed to fit busy school and sports schedules. And for adults, it is never too late. Modern braces are smaller, more comfortable, and more discreet than the ones you may remember.
Airway specialists
Airway-Conscious Braces
As an airway-focused practice, we look beyond straight teeth with every set of braces we place. Dr. Vakili thoughtfully evaluates how your jaw position, arch width, and bite influence breathing, sleep quality, and long-term development. By aligning teeth in harmony with healthy airway function, we create smiles that are beautiful, stable, and built to support your overall wellness, which is especially valuable for growing children.
Braces Questions, Answered
How much do braces cost in Santa Rosa?
Every smile is different, so cost depends on your treatment plan. Your consultation is always complimentary, and you will leave with a clear, custom-tailored plan and exact pricing. We offer flexible, interest-free payment options and work with most insurance plans.
Are custom braces really faster?
Often, yes. KLOwen white paper data supports 41% less treatment time, 45% fewer appointments, and 49% fewer broken brackets with the custom system we use. Results vary, but the added precision makes treatment more efficient for many patients.
What age should my child get braces?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic visit by age 7. Most children will not need braces that early, but an evaluation lets us guide jaw and airway development at the ideal time and plan treatment when it will help most.
Should I choose braces or Invisalign?
Both create beautiful, healthy smiles, and the best choice depends on your bite, your goals, and your lifestyle. Braces excel at precise control for complex movements, while aligners offer removable convenience. At your complimentary consultation, Dr. Vakili will walk you through which option fits you best.
