Trustworthy Orthodontic Care in Glendora, CA
Confidence Starts Here!
The Beginning of Something Beautiful
Getting braces is a big decision, we know – there’s the commitment, the cost, and maybe even feeling a little self-conscious along the way. Whether you’re a teen ready to straighten things out or an adult finally giving your smile the attention it deserves, we’re here to make your journey smooth, supportive, and (dare we say?) even fun!
Choosing braces means more than just a gorgeous smile — it’s an investment in your health and confidence. Braces also help with:
- Healthier teeth and gums: Straight teeth are easier to brush and floss, which lowers your risk for cavities and gum disease.
- Less jaw pain: Aligning your bite can take pressure off your jaw joints and muscles, helping to ease discomfort from TMJ issues.
- Confidence boost: A straighter smile can make a big difference in how you feel about yourself — and how often you show off your grin.
- Options that fit your lifestyle: Whether you’re into the classic metal look or something more discreet like ceramic or lingual braces, we’ll help you find the right fit.
Let us help you love your smile — and keep it healthy for years to come.
Braces are an amazing tool for improving both how your smile looks and how your mouth functions. They can fix crowded or crooked teeth, gaps, and bite issues like overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites. By gently guiding your teeth and jaw into better alignment, braces help you chew more comfortably, keep your smile cleaner, and support your long-term oral health.

What happens after my braces come off?
Once your treatment is complete, the braces will be removed, and you'll be fitted with a retainer that you wear at night to maintain your new smile's alignment.
How long do I have to wear braces?
The duration of orthodontic treatment varies, depending on the complexity of the issues being addressed and how well your teeth respond to the braces. On average, treatment can last from 18 months to 3 years.
Are braces painful?
While braces can cause some discomfort, especially after adjustments, this is typically temporary and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Our team at Foothill Family Dental Group is committed to ensuring your comfort throughout the treatment process.
I'm an adult, can I still get braces?
Absolutely! Braces are effective for people of all ages, including adults. Many adults choose braces to correct long-standing issues or to get the smile they've always wanted.
How do I clean my teeth while wearing braces?
Proper care involves regular brushing and flossing, avoiding hard and sticky foods that can damage the braces, and attending all scheduled appointments for adjustments. You should also use interdental brushes or a water flosser to clean around each bracket to avoid them leaving stains on the teeth. Dr. Mariam and Dr. Yara will provide detailed care instructions tailored to your specific type of braces when you come see us.
