"Dr. Ting and Staff are always upbeat, supportive and positive. They make each experience for my 12 and 8 year old stress free by explaining what treatment will take place at the appt. As a parent, I am impressed with Dr. Ting's positive reward system. My kids enjoy earning "Ting Bucks" to spend in his "store" for good hygeine, being on time for appts etc...As a family, we are so grateful for the care we are receiving. "

Questions & Answers Q&A

Q. What's the earliest age my daughter can go in for Invisalign treatment? I saw a commercial for Invisalign Teen, but it didn't say at what age she could get the treatment. She is 11 years old.
A. Yes, we can start treating Invisalign teen cases at much younger age now. The answer to your question is to have a consultation with a Invisalign trained orthodontist. If you prefer, even a second opinion.

You change the aligners every 2 weeks, and visit your dentist every 4-6 weeks for a check-up. Typical treatment time is about a year, though it varies from patient to patient.

Children's orthodontics | Dr. Richard Ting | Orthodontist | Rancho Santa Margarita CA

It used to be that kids got braces when they were in middle school or even high school. Now it seems that children are starting orthodontics in elementary school. Why the rush? There have been studies that show that the sooner children start some kind of orthodontics, the more successful their treatment will be. Although most orthodontic problems are best treated with traditional braces, some problems need to be treated as soon as they are noticed, no matter how young a child is. Because... read more
