Bracesetters Orthodontics knows that teen orthodontics in Middletown has to keep pace with ever-changing schedules and growing confidence. Board-certified orthodontists, Dr. Michael Skrobola, Dr. Jonathan Schlosser, and Dr. Mike Skrobola III, make that happen with flexible choices and a team that treats patients like neighbors. Before choosing a treatment, it helps to know what matters most during these busy years. Let’s start by looking at what makes teen orthodontics different from the rest.
What Middletown Teens Need from Treatment
Middletown teens aren’t exactly sitting still. They’re sprinting from bio class to basketball tryouts and catching movies at the AMC in Galleria Mall before curfew.
If braces are going to work, they have to keep up. That means no high-maintenance gear, no awkward metal surprises, and definitely nothing that messes with a good selfie. Bracesetters Orthodontics understands that treatment has to blend into real life.
That’s why they offer options that match the pace, the vibe, and the snack breaks that define teen life in Middletown.

Clear Aligners That Are Nearly Invisible
Clear aligners check all the boxes for Middletown teens who want to stay confident in every Snap, TikTok, or photo from the Homecoming dance. Whether they’re grabbing pretzel bites at Auntie Anne’s or heading to Round1 for arcade night, aligners keep things low-profile and low-maintenance.
Bracesetters Orthodontics offers three standout options, all nearly invisible, all designed to fit real teen life:
- Angel Aligners: Known for precision and comfort, these aligners use advanced digital planning to deliver clear results with a smooth, streamlined feel.
- Spark Aligners: Made from polished, stain-resistant material, Spark’s trays blend in well and stay clear longer (ideal for school photos and after-school selfies).
- Invisalign: A longtime favorite for teens, these BPA-free trays are easy to remove for snacks, brushing, and big events. Plus, Invisalign offers extras like wear indicators and replacement trays when life gets a little chaotic.
All three aligner systems come with the same Bracesetters perks: a doctor-monitored treatment plan, digital scans to kick things off, and a team that keeps things smooth from the first tray to the last.
Some teens don’t want removable trays, though. Next up, let’s talk about another low-profile option with serious staying power.
Clear Braces That Are Sleek and Smart
For teens who want treatment that sticks (and keeps its cool look), the options here are anything but ordinary. Bracesetters Orthodontics offers two standout bracket systems that blend effectiveness with discretion.
- Clear (Ceramic) Braces: These use tooth-colored ceramic brackets that fade into your smile rather than flash it. They offer the reliability of traditional braces with a smoother, subtler style.Â
- LightForce Clear Braces: Take the tech route. These are custom 3D-printed ceramic brackets tailored to each tooth’s exact shape and orientation, promising faster results and fewer office visits—all with a clean, barely-there look.Â
Both stay in place through every playoff game, team practice, and snack run, without compromising on aesthetics or performance.
Next: we’ll dive into metal braces and why they still earn a spot for teens who want durability with a twist.
Metal Braces That Are Modern and Strong
Since not every teen wants (or needs) removable trays or clear braces, Bracesetters Orthodontics offers a modern, durable option for those ready to commit.
Metal braces that feel modern, with smaller brackets, smoother edges, and advanced placement techniques like indirect bonding, all contribute to a more comfortable experience.
- A reliable choice for tougher cases, these braces stay put through sports, snacks, and school projects, and don’t rely on teens remembering to insert anything.
- Efficient and effective treatment, digital scans, and planning make fitting quicker and results more precise.
- This option suits teens whose calendars can’t pause for weekly aligner swaps.
