WHY BRACES REMAIN
THE GOLD STANDARD
Traditional metal braces have been perfecting smiles for over a century, and there's a reason they remain the most popular orthodontic treatment worldwide. At Ketcherside Dental & Orthodontics in Corona, CA, we use the latest bracket technology to make braces more comfortable and effective than ever.
Today's braces are smaller, sleeker, and more efficient than the bulky metal brackets of the past. Modern materials and advanced treatment planning allow us to move teeth more predictably and often in less time than previous generations.
For complex cases involving significant bite issues, jaw alignment problems, or severe crowding, traditional braces often provide the most reliable and comprehensive solution.
Affordable Excellence
Flexible payment plans available with approved credit. Most insurance plans cover 50-80% of treatment costs for children under 18. Serving Corona, Norco, and Eastvale families.
