Orthodontic treatment for children is known as Phase I treatment and it typically used for early intervention in order to help guide healthy and proper dental and jaw development.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends early consultations to identify orthodontic issues in children and plan for treatment as deemed necessary. Many children may not need early treatment, however having an orthodontic evaluation while teeth and jaws are still growing makes it easier for Dr. Nithya to address conditions before they create severe problems.
We are always here to answer any questions you may have about children’s braces or the benefits that clear aligners can provide your child! Dr. Nithya is proud to be a trusted children’s orthodontist, welcoming children and families across the Danbury, Ridgefield, Wilton, New Canaan, Weston, Georgetown, Redding CT; Pound Ridge, Salem, and Cross River, NY areas.
Once it is time for orthodontics, we will guide you and your teen to find the treatment that is right for you.
We will take you through our options and find the one to get the best results while fitting your teen’s lifestyle, whether that be traditional braces, clear braces or clear aligners.
It is never too late to reach your smile goals! Dr. Nithya will help create a plan to improve your smile while also ensuring that we address your bite and coordinate your treatment with your other dental providers as needed.
Our goal is to work with you to help you attain a healthy and beautiful smile through traditional braces or more modern clear aligners. On top of our orthodontic solutions, we also provide cosmetic dentistry treatments to help enhance your smile and confidence.

Whichever fits your case and your habits. Braces work on every kind of bite and never get left on a lunch tray, while clear aligners like Invisalign and Spark are nearly invisible and come out for eating and brushing. At your free consultation Dr. Nithya will tell you honestly which options suit your teeth.
BRAVA by Brius places independent brackets on the back of your teeth, completely hidden from view. Ridgefield Orthodontics offers them for patients who want fixed treatment without visible braces and without the responsibility of wearing aligners 22 hours a day.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic check by age 7. Most kids that age need no treatment yet, but an early look lets Dr. Nithya catch jaw growth or crowding problems while they are simplest to correct.
Most comprehensive cases finish in roughly 12 to 24 months, and small corrections can be faster. Your timeline depends on your bite, your treatment type, and how well you follow instructions like wearing elastics or aligners. You get a realistic estimate at your consultation.
Yes. Teeth drift back toward their old positions without one, so a retainer protects the result you worked for. Dr. Nithya will recommend the right retainer for your case and show you how to care for it.
