By September, students across Georgia are already back in the classroom and settling into their fall routines. With the rush of back-to-school shopping behind you and schedules taking shape, it’s the perfect moment to prioritize your child’s health — especially their smile. At Georgia School of Orthodontics (GSO), we believe fall is one of the best times to schedule an orthodontic checkup. Here’s why.
A Fresh Start for the School Year
A new academic year brings fresh routines and new beginnings. Scheduling an orthodontic consultation in the fall ensures your child starts the year with a healthy smile and a plan in place if treatment is needed. It can boost their confidence as they meet new teachers, make new friends, and participate in activities.
Early Evaluations Prevent Bigger Problems
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) along with GSO recommends that children see an orthodontist by age 7. Even if braces aren’t needed right away, early evaluations can identify issues like crowding, crossbites, or jaw growth problems before they become more serious. Addressing concerns early can mean simpler, shorter, and more effective treatment later on.
Convenient Scheduling Around School Activities
Fall is often when families establish routines for academics, sports, and extracurriculars. At GSO, we offer early morning and late evening appointments, making it easier to fit orthodontic care into a busy school schedule without missing class or practice.
Affordable, High-Quality Care for Families
We know that back-to-school expenses can add up quickly. That’s why GSO provides traditional and ceramic braces and Invisalign® at up to 50% less than private practice fees*. Families can count on expert care from highly trained resident dentists under the supervision of board-certified faculty, without compromising quality or affordability.
The Most Advanced Technology for Comfortable Care
Our 100% digital clinics use advanced technology like 3D scans and digital impressions — no messy molds required. This makes consultations and treatments more comfortable for kids and gives families peace of mind that their child is receiving the most up-to-date orthodontic care.
Give Your Child the Confidence to Shine This Year
A confident smile can make all the difference as kids head back to school. Whether your child is ready for braces, Invisalign®, or just needs an early evaluation, fall is the perfect season to take that first step.
