family of 4

At Gupta Smile Studio – Orthodontics in Oak Cliff, Dallas, we know orthodontic treatment is often a family journey. Many parents bring their children in for braces and then realize they’ve always wanted to straighten their own smile, too. That’s why we specialize in family orthodontics — offering personalized treatment options for both kids and adults in one welcoming, boutique-style office.

Why Choose Family Orthodontics?

Orthodontic care is most effective when it’s convenient and stress-free. By choosing a family-focused orthodontist, you can:

• Schedule appointments for parents and kids together

• Simplify billing and insurance with one office

• Take advantage of family discounts when multiple members start treatment

• Create a shared experience — many parents and kids go through treatment at the same time!

Our goal is to make orthodontics simple, comfortable, and enjoyable for the whole family.

Orthodontic Options for Kids

Every child’s smile develops differently, which is why early evaluation is so important. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first orthodontic checkup by age 7.

At Gupta Smile Studio, we offer:

• Phase 1 (Early) Treatment – For young children with crowding, crossbites, or airway issues. Appliances like expanders can guide jaw growth and prevent bigger problems later.

• Traditional Braces – Reliable, effective, and often the most affordable choice for kids and teens.

• Clear Braces – A less noticeable alternative for image-conscious teens.

• Invisalign® Teen – Removable, nearly invisible aligners designed for growing smiles.

Orthodontic Options for Parents

Parents often think braces are just for kids, but today, more than 1 in 4 orthodontic patients is an adult. Whether you missed treatment as a child or your teeth shifted over time, we have options tailored for busy adults:

• Clear Aligners (Invisalign®) – Perfect for professionals who want a discreet treatment option.

• Clear Ceramic Braces – Blend in with your teeth for a subtle look.

• Traditional Braces – Smaller and sleeker than the braces you may remember from childhood.

Adult treatment doesn’t just improve confidence — it can also improve oral health, making teeth easier to clean and reducing jaw stress.

Making Orthodontics Affordable for Families

We understand orthodontics is an investment, especially when multiple family members are in treatment. At Gupta Smile Studio, we offer:

• Flexible monthly payment plans

• Low down payments

• Family discounts

• Insurance checks to maximize your benefits

Our goal is to help every family in Oak Cliff and Dallas access world-class orthodontic care without financial stress.

(FAQ)Frequently Asked Questions About Family Orthodontics

🦷 What’s the best age for braces?

Most kids get braces between ages 11 and 14, once most of their permanent teeth have come in. However, the American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first checkup by age 7. Early evaluation can catch bite or growth problems before they become more complicated.

👨‍👩‍👧 Can parents and kids start braces at the same time?

Absolutely! Many families in Dallas choose to begin treatment together. Parents often tell us it’s motivating for kids when they see Mom or Dad wearing Invisalign® or braces, too — plus, it makes scheduling and payment plans much simpler.

⏳ How long does orthodontic treatment take?

Treatment time varies depending on the case. For most kids and adults, braces or Invisalign last 12–24 months. Early Phase 1 treatment for younger children may take closer to 6–12 months. At Gupta Smile Studio, we’ll give you a personalized timeline at your consultation.

💰 How much do braces cost in Dallas?

Braces in Dallas typically range from $2,000 to $7,500, depending on the type of treatment and complexity. Invisalign costs are usually similar. At Gupta Smile Studio, we make family orthodontics affordable with monthly payment plans, family discounts, and insurance checks.

😬 Do braces hurt?

Braces don’t usually hurt, but you may feel some pressure or soreness for a few days after adjustments. Invisalign tends to be gentler since it uses gradual, controlled movements. Either way, most patients adjust quickly and find treatment very manageable.
