Usually your primary dentist will recommend the orthodontist about the time that the child's bones are nearing the end of their growth.

I had braces at age 10 after wearing a kind of pre-braces appliance for several years before that--starting at age 7. It depends on the course of treatment that your orthodontist feels is best.

How old do have to be to wear designer braces?

Why "designer"? Why not ordinary braces? Would a designer do a better job of making a set of braces than your own dentist? Anyway, a company called "Designer Braces" of New York says that it is best to see the orthodontist at about the age of 7, so I guess that they don't do much younger than that. Don't be a prat... get a regular set.
