Orthodontic treatment isn’t just about straightening teeth — it’s about creating confident, healthy smiles that last a lifetime. At Pebble Pediatric Dentistry, we offer in-house clear aligner treatment for kids, teens, and young adults using the latest in 3D digital technology. Our approach is gentle, modern, and designed with growing smiles in mind.
We use advanced 3D scanning technology to capture a full digital model of your child’s mouth — no messy impressions or putty trays required. These scans are used to design a precise, customized clear aligner plan that gently shifts teeth into place. Clear aligners are a comfortable, esthetic, and convenient alternative to traditional metal braces — and many pediatric patients are great candidates.
For more complex orthodontic needs, we work closely with trusted local board-certified orthodontists to ensure your child receives the highest level of care. That said, with today’s advanced clear aligner technology, most children can be treated without braces, especially if early crowding or misalignment is caught early.
By offering orthodontic evaluation and clear aligner treatment right in our office, we make the process easier, more affordable, and less intimidating for families. Our goal is to catch issues early, offer conservative solutions, and create beautifully aligned smiles without disrupting your child’s daily life.
If you have questions or think pediatric orthodontics may be right for your child, our team is here to walk you through every step of the process.
Parents want to know if their child really needs braces, how early orthodontic treatment should begin, and whether clear aligners work as well as traditional braces. The truth is, many kids today can avoid braces altogether, thanks to early evaluation and advanced clear aligner systems. We’ll guide you every step of the way — from digital scans to smile planning — and connect you with trusted orthodontists for anything beyond our scope. Your child’s comfort, esthetics, and long-term smile are our top priorities.

Yes — for many mild to moderate alignment issues, clear aligners are just as effective as braces, with the added benefit of being removable and nearly invisible.
Treatment time varies, but most pediatric aligner plans take 6–18 months, depending on the complexity of the case and how consistently the aligners are worn.
If braces are the best option, we’ll refer your family to a trusted local board-certified orthodontist for expert care. We’ll still be here to support your child throughout the journey.
Absolutely. Clear aligners are smooth, non-irritating, and removable, making them easier to manage than brackets and wires — especially for kids with sensory sensitivity or active lifestyles.
