1. IT’S EASIER TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENTS when kids are not yet spending their day in school. While kids are still on their summer break, they won’t miss any classes at school. Ultimately, parents have more flexibility to schedule a convenient appointment day and time that works for everyone.
2. KIDS HAVE TIME TO ADJUST while they are in the comfort of their home and around their parents prior to going back to school. In some cases, braces may cause discomfort right after they are first put on. Additionally, food will often get caught in braces and need to be proper care afterwards. At home, kids will be able to practice taking proper care of their new braces to help be prepared for when they are back in school.
3. PARENTS ARE AROUND TO HELP and teach their kids to take proper after braces, before sending them back to school. Vakani Orthodontics has an awesome braces survival pack to get started with! Every patient gets one after getting braces. Our braces survival pack includes a toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, wax, and more.
4. BRACES TREATMENT SCHEDULE ALIGNS WITH SCHOOL BREAKS as most braces are scheduled in 12, 18, or 24 months. If your child gets braces during summer break, he or she will probably be removing them or getting them tightened during the next school break, and so on and so forth.
