Clear and Multi-Colored Braces

Orthodontics is easier than ever! New technologies and orthodontic options have made braces more comfortable and attractive and reduced the time necessary to complete treatment. Patients are no longer limited to standard silver braces in Fort Wayne, as Dr. Bussick also offers clear brackets. With your choice of elastic ties, you can customize your braces and change colors at virtually every appointment.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Braces?

Braces work for nearly every age and nearly every bite. Dr. Bussick treats kids, teens, and adults, and the American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children be evaluated by age 7 so growth can be monitored and treatment can start at the ideal time. Whether your family dentist mentioned crowding, spacing, or bite concerns, or you simply want a straighter smile, a free consultation is the easiest way to find out what braces could do for you. No referral is needed.

What Happens When You Get Braces?

Treatment at Bussick Orthodontics starts with a complimentary exam, including digital x-rays and photos, so Dr. Bussick can map out a personalized plan before anything is placed on your teeth. Once your braces are on, you will visit our Southwest or North Fort Wayne office for periodic adjustments, and you can pick new elastic tie colors at virtually every appointment. When your braces come off, a retainer keeps your new smile in place. You can read more about each step on our What to Expect page.

Braces Questions, Answered

What kinds of braces does Bussick Orthodontics offer?

Dr. Bussick offers traditional metal braces and clear brackets. With your choice of elastic ties, you can customize your braces and change colors at virtually every appointment.

At what age should my child be evaluated for braces?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have an orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early evaluation lets Dr. Bussick monitor growth and start treatment only when the timing is right.

Do I need a referral from my dentist to get braces?

No referral is needed. You can schedule a free consultation with Bussick Orthodontics directly, and we will coordinate with your family dentist throughout treatment.

How much do braces cost in Fort Wayne?

Treatment types and price vary by individual, so exact costs are set after your free exam. Bussick Orthodontics provides many payment options and will work with your insurance company to maximize your benefits.

Are braces only for kids and teens?

No. Dr. Bussick treats kids, teens, and adults at both Fort Wayne offices, and clear bracket options make braces less noticeable for adult patients.

How do I get started with braces at Bussick Orthodontics?

Start with a free consultation. Your first visit includes an exam with Dr. Bussick, x-rays and photos as needed, and a clear discussion of treatment options, timing, and payment before anything begins.

This Bussick location on Coldwater road is inside the "Harrison Dental Group" building. I visited for a consultation for Invisalign to see if it would be a good fit for me, and to get an idea of cost of course. From the moment I went to the back room everyone I spoke with was super friendly, and Dr. Bussick himself sat and had a convo with me while I waited and told me all about Invisalign. Usually at dentist offices I feel like the actual dentist is in a rush to leave the room and doesn't stick around long, while Dr. Bussick was there the whole time with me and the technician. I spent just under an hour here for my consultation getting an xray and scans of my teeth, pretty quick considering everything they did in that hour! Due to my insurance I won't be getting started on my Invisalign journey for another 5 months, but I will definitely be returning at the start of the year to get going!

I would highly recommend Dr. Bussick for all of your orthodontic needs. I have been a patient for more than 20 years, and even though I live two hours away, I continue to make the drive because of the exceptional care I receive. Throughout the years, Dr. Bussick has helped me navigate numerous health transitions and has consistently provided thoughtful, personalized treatment every step of the way. I have a very complex orthodontic case, and Dr. Bussick has worked diligently to resolve issues that other providers may have found challenging. What sets Dr. Bussick apart is not only expertise and attention to detail, but also the genuine care shown to every patient. Dr. Bussick takes the time to listen carefully to my concerns, explain treatment options, and develop a plan that is tailored to my specific needs and goals. In addition, the entire staff has always been welcoming, professional, and compassionate. They go out of their way to make me feel comfortable during every visit and never make me feel rushed. Their patience, kindness, and commitment to excellent patient care have made a lasting impression on me over the years. Thanks to Dr. Bussick’s dedication and skill, I feel confident in my smile and confident that my orthodontic needs are being managed by someone I trust completely. After more than two decades as a patient, I can say without hesitation that Dr. Bussick and the team consistently provide outstanding care and truly put their patients first. I am incredibly grateful for everything they have done for me and would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking high-quality orthodontic treatment.
