Braces for Teens & Young
If you’re here, you’re likely already thinking about braces.
For some, it’s a parent exploring options for their teen. For others, it’s a young adult ready to make a
change.
The question isn’t whether to do something—it’s what’s the right way to approach it?
At MSD Dental Studio, orthodontic care is led by Dr. Shantall Di Loreto, a general dentist who has
dedicated her practice to orthodontics and preventive care.
She brings extensive experience managing hundreds of orthodontic cases and guiding patients with
clarity, confidence, and a thoughtful, health-first approach.
From your first visit, you’ll understand what’s happening with your teeth and bite, what needs to be addressed, how we recommend approaching treatment, and what the process will look like.
Every patient walks in differently. Some are ready. Some are unsure. Dr. Shantall meets you where you are and creates a calm, structured environment focused on long-term outcomes.
“I meet you where you are. This isn’t a high-volume setting—you won’t be rushed. My goal is to make the process comfortable and to watch your confidence grow throughout treatment.”
1. Precise control of tooth movement
2. Reliable correction of bite issues
3. Consistent progress without relying on wear time
4. Predictable, stable long-term results
In cases where alignment is more involved or bite correction is important, braces are often the best tool for the job.
1. Movement is more mild to moderate
2. Bite correction is less complex
3. Aesthetics are a higher priority
4. The patient is consistent with wear
For the right case, aligners offer a more discreet and flexible experience. Our role is to recommend the
approach that will give you the most predictable, stable result
Orthodontic treatment doesn’t happen in isolation. Cavities can still develop and hygiene can become more challenging.
We monitor and manage your oral health throughout treatment and coordinate care when needed.
Some cases require additional expertise. When that’s indicated, we coordinate with a trusted network of specialists to ensure seamless, efficient care.
1. Comprehensive evaluation
2. Personalized treatment plan
3. Regular visits to guide progress
4. Consistent communication

You will understand not only your options—but the reasoning behind them
Some replacement cases require collaboration with trusted specialist partners. When appropriate, we coordinate care seamlessly so that each phase of treatment feels deliberate and structured.
Our goal is to ensure that every step—from diagnosis to final restoration—aligns with long-term stability.
If you are considering replacing a missing tooth, begin with a comprehensive evaluation.
