Yes, KL Owen Braces are an excellent option for children and teens. They are designed to be more comfortable and can often reduce the number of office visits and overall treatment time—making them especially convenient for busy families in Milwaukee.

KL Owen Braces are a type of self-ligating braces designed to provide faster, more efficient tooth movement with less discomfort. Unlike traditional braces, they use a sliding mechanism that reduces friction and eliminates the need for elastic ties.

Absolutely! At Griffin Orthodontics, we offer a variety of flexible payment options to make orthodontic care affordable and convenient for every patient. We accept traditional payment methods like cash, checks, and major credit cards, and we’re happy to work with you to set up customized payment plans that fit your budget.

You can also use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to cover orthodontic expenses. Many patients find that using their HSA or FSA is a smart way to manage out-of-pocket costs while taking advantage of tax savings. If you have any questions about payment plans or how to use your benefits, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Orthodontic treatment length depends on each patient’s case, but most people at Griffin Orthodontics complete treatment in about 12 to 24 months. Minor adjustments or early-phase treatments can take less than a year, while more complex cases (for example, significant bite corrections) might take up to about 2 years. Whether you choose LightForce braces or Spark Clear Aligners, our West Allis orthodontist will give you an estimated timeframe after evaluating your smile. With modern techniques and regular check-ups, we make sure your treatment stays on schedule as much as possible. Remember, following your orthodontist’s instructions (like wearing aligners as directed or keeping appointments) also helps finish your treatment on time.

Yes. Griffin Orthodontics treats patients of all ages – children, teens, and adults – at our West Allis and Oak Creek offices. For children, we offer early evaluations (usually around age 7) and treatments like palatal expanders or early-phase braces to guide jaw growth and make future corrections easier. Teens can get traditional braces (with options like clear or LightForce braces) or clear aligners like Spark for a nearly invisible option during high school years. Adults are also welcome – it’s never too late to improve your smile, and we provide discreet treatment choices such as ceramic braces or Spark Clear Aligners to fit adults’ lifestyles. Our team personalizes treatment plans for each age group to ensure the best results and a comfortable experience.
