If you live in the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA) and have been considering braces or clear aligners, this season may be one of the best times to begin orthodontic treatment. With routines settling back into place across local schools and workplaces, starting now can make treatment smoother, more affordable, and easier to manage.
Here’s why families throughout Augusta, Evans, Grovetown, Harlem, North Augusta, and surrounding CSRA communities are choosing to start orthodontic care right now.
1. Local School Schedules Are Back in Rhythm
Once the school year is fully underway, schedules become more predictable. For students in CSRA school districts, this makes it easier to attend orthodontic appointments without missing excessive class time.
Starting treatment now allows kids and teens to adjust early—before busy testing periods, sports seasons, and end-of-year activities arrive.
2. Easier Appointments for Busy CSRA Families
Families in the CSRA juggle work, commuting, school drop-offs, and extracurriculars. Beginning orthodontic treatment during a calmer season helps parents avoid last-minute scheduling conflicts and rushed appointments.
Consistent visits are key to successful treatment—and now is an ideal time to establish that routine.
3. A Comfortable Time of Year for Adjustments
Cooler weather can make orthodontic adjustments feel more manageable. Many patients notice less sensitivity and swelling during this season, making the early phase of treatment more comfortable.
That’s a small but meaningful benefit—especially for first-time orthodontic patients.
4. Clear Aligners Are a Popular Choice Across the CSRA
Adults and teens throughout the CSRA are increasingly choosing clear aligner treatment. This season makes it easier to stay consistent with wear time since there are fewer major holidays and travel disruptions.
Starting aligners now helps build strong habits early, leading to better results over time.
5. Insurance Benefits Reset for Many CSRA Patients
For many families, dental and orthodontic insurance benefits reset at the start of the year. This creates an opportunity to maximize coverage before benefits expire again.
Beginning treatment now allows CSRA patients to take full advantage of their insurance, flexible payment plans, and financing options.
6. Start Working Toward a Healthier Smile Now
Orthodontic treatment does more than straighten teeth – it improves bite alignment, makes daily cleaning easier, and supports long-term oral health.
By starting treatment now, CSRA patients can:
- See progress sooner
- Avoid future dental complications
- Move confidently toward a healthier smile
