Braces
Braces in Henderson, Summerlin & Las Vegas
Braces have come a long way. Todayʼs braces are smaller, smoother, and more comfortable than the ones you might remember, and theyʼre one of the most reliable, effective ways to create a healthy, beautiful smile. They work for kids, teens, and adults, and theyʼre especially good at handling the moves that take real precision.
At Chenin Orthodontic Group, your braces treatment is guided by orthodontists who have spent decades doing this, including a Board Certified Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics. Whatever your age and whatever your smile needs, youʼre in experienced hands.

Modern Braces, Built for Comfort
Forget the bulky brackets of the past. We use Empower self-ligating braces from American Orthodontics, available in classic silver and in clear.
Self-ligating braces hold the wire with a built-in mechanism instead of elastic ties. That means lighter forces, lower friction, and tooth movement thatʼs efficient and controlled. For you, it adds up to a more comfortable experience and easier cleaning, since there are fewer spots for food and plaque to hide. Easier hygiene means healthier teeth and gums throughout treatment, which matters just as much as the final result.
Prefer something more discreet? Clear self-ligating brackets blend in with your natural teeth, so you get the strength of braces with a lower profile.
Braces for Every Age
Kids. For younger patients, early evaluation lets your orthodontist catch and guide issues while the jaw is still growing. Sometimes that means a short, well-timed first phase of treatment that makes things simpler later. You can learn more on our early treatment page.
Teens. The teenage years are the most common time for braces, and for good reason. Teeth and jaws respond well, and treatment fits naturally alongside school and sports. Clear bracket options help teens feel confident in photos and everyday life
Adults. Itʼs never too late. More adults are choosing braces than ever, whether they never had treatment growing up or their teeth shifted over the years. A confident smile is worth it at any stage of life, and our team makes adult treatment comfortable and straightforward.
Find the Right Option for Your Family
What to Expect with Braces
It starts with a complimentary consultation. Your orthodontist will examine your teeth and bite, often using advanced 3D imaging, and explain exactly what treatment would involve, how long it should take, and what it will cost. No surprises.
Once your braces are on, youʼll come in for short adjustment visits at our Henderson or Summerlin office every several weeks so your orthodontist can keep your treatment on track. Most patients settle into the routine quickly, and weʼre always a phone call away if something feels off between visits.
When your braces come off and you see your new smile for the first time, a retainer keeps everything in place. Your orthodontist will guide you on exactly how to wear it so your results last.
Want Faster Treatment? Ask About OrthoPulse
If shortening your time in braces appeals to you, ask us about OrthoPulse by BioLux. Itʼs the first device of its kind cleared by the FDA for use with both braces and clear aligners.
OrthoPulse uses gentle, low-intensity near infrared light to stimulate the bone around your tooth roots, which can speed up tooth movement and improve comfort. You wear it about 10 minutes a day, at home or anywhere, with no disruption to your schedule. Your orthodontist will tell you honestly whether itʼs a good fit for your case.

Braces or Invisalign? Letʼs Talk Honestly
A lot of patients come in set on one option and leave glad they asked. Braces are often the better choice for complex tooth movements and for younger patients who do well with an appliance that stays in place. Clear aligners like Invisalign can be ideal for patients who want a removable, discreet option and will wear them consistently.
Because our orthodontists have deep experience across the full range of treatment, youʼll get a straight answer about what genuinely works best for you. Curious about the clear route? Visit our Invisalign page to see why patients travel across the valley for our Invisalign expertise.
