🌞 Why Summer Is the Best Time to Start Your Orthodontic Treatment

Summer is not just about fun in the sun — it’s also the perfect season to begin your orthodontic journey! Whether you’re considering Invisalign® or traditional braces, starting treatment during summer comes with unique benefits that can make your experience smoother and more enjoyable.

Here’s why summer is the ideal time for new patients to start orthodontic treatment at Grace Orthodontics in Fort Lee, NJ.

More Free Time for Appointments and Adjustments

During the school year, busy schedules can make it hard to fit in regular orthodontic visits. Summer means:

  • No early school mornings or after-school activities to rush to

  • Flexible appointment times that won’t interfere with classes or homework

  • Easier scheduling for any necessary adjustments or emergency visits

🗓 More free time means you can focus on your smile without stress.

🎉 Enjoy Your Treatment with Less Social Pressure

Starting treatment in summer gives you a head start before the new school year begins:

  • Get comfortable with your orthodontic appliances before heading back to school

  • Avoid awkward "first day with braces" photos — you’ll have time to adjust

  • Boost your confidence knowing your smile is already on the path to perfection

😄 Feel confident and prepared when school starts again.

🍽 Eat What You Want — Summer Foods Are Friendlier for New Patients

Beginning treatment in summer means you can enjoy a diet that’s easier to manage during the adjustment period:

  • Softer summer foods like smoothies, ice cream, and fresh fruits are gentle on newly fitted braces or aligners

  • If you choose Invisalign, you can remove your aligners to eat anything you want, no restrictions
