Summer isn’t just a season for sunshine and vacations—it’s also the perfect time to begin your child’s orthodontic journey. At Herzberg Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on creating a seamless experience for every patient, blending cutting-edge technology with personalized attention in a welcoming, small-practice environment.

If you’ve been thinking about braces for your child or teen, here are the top five reasons why summer is an ideal time to get started:

1. A Smoother Adjustment Period

The first few days with braces can bring a little soreness and an adjustment to new routines. Starting treatment in the summer gives your child time to adapt without the added pressure of school schedules or extracurriculars. They’ll be able to get comfortable with their braces, learn proper brushing techniques, and gain confidence in their new smile—all at their own pace.

2. Less Disruption to School & Activities

Beginning treatment in the summer minimizes school-year interruptions for initial appointments or potential quick visits. By fall, your child will be familiar with their braces routine and ready to manage it confidently—helping them stay focused on classes, sports, and friendships.

3. Flexible Appointment Options

At Herzberg Orthodontics, we understand how busy family calendars can be—especially in the summer. That’s why we offer evening and weekend appointments to fit your schedule, along with flexible payment plans and OrthoFi financing options. Starting now ensures you can find appointment times that work best for your family and avoid the back-to-school rush.

4. A Head Start on Their Smile Transformation

Why wait? Beginning braces this summer gives your child a jump-start toward their new smile. Many of our patients return to school in the fall already seeing exciting changes—boosting their confidence as they progress through treatment. As the area’s exclusive provider of Brava and offering a full suite of innovative solutions—including Invisalign®, Dental Monitoring, Damon Braces, and more—we ensure your child has access to the latest advancements in orthodontic care.

5. Confidence That Lasts All Year

Braces do more than align teeth—they help your child feel empowered and self-assured. Starting in the summer provides a strong foundation of confidence that carries through the new school year and beyond. Our award-winning, board-certified doctors and dedicated team partner with you and your child every step of the way to deliver a world-class orthodontic experience that exceeds expectations.
