About Sugarbug Orthodontics

Based on West 5th Street in Oxnard, California, Sugarbug Orthodontics is a dental practice serving the area. Traditional braces use brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into alignment, handling complex bite corrections and significant crowding more predictably than removable alternatives. Treatment commonly runs one to three years, with a retainer worn afterward to hold the result.

Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.

Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.

Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

A first appointment at a new practice typically covers a full examination, a review of your dental and medical history, and a professional cleaning, with X-rays if you do not have recent ones. It is also a reasonable time to raise any longer-term concerns, cosmetic or otherwise, so they can be factored into a plan going forward.

What services does Sugarbug Orthodontics offer?
Listed services at Sugarbug Orthodontics include Braces. The full list is shown on this page.
What age is best for braces?
Assessment around age seven is often suggested so developing problems can be spotted, though treatment itself usually starts later once enough adult teeth are through. Adults can be treated at any age provided the gums and bone are healthy.
Will I need a retainer after braces?
Yes, and indefinitely in some form. Teeth have a persistent tendency to drift back toward their original positions, and retainers are what prevent years of treatment from gradually undoing itself.
How often should I have a dental check-up?
Every six months suits most people. If you have gum disease or a history of decay a dentist may suggest coming more often. The point of regular visits is mostly to catch problems while they are still small and cheap to treat.

Thank you to Miss Teresa, the X-ray tech, and the orthodontist for being… amazing My daughter was very nervous and in tears about getting her X-rays she was overall scared and was feeling claustrophobic. Miss Teresa was kind and patient, staying with her and holding her leg so she wouldn’t feel alone during the x- ray process, her touch made my daughter feel as if she wasn’t alone while getting the x-ray. That small act made a big difference in helping her feel safe. You all were working together to make this a positive experience. Thank you for taking such good care of us!

I used to love bringing my kids here but not any more due to the longer wait times we have been experiencing. For example today, we checked in at the times they told us to and just to wait 30+ minutes in the lobby just becausethey didn'thave a room available......their wait times have gotten so bad now.

This is such a great place. The staff is friendly and helpful. They’re on point when it comes to cleanliness and hygiene of the area and tools. Their customer service is always available and ready with a doctors note for my child. The entire visit from In and out goes extremely smooth. The doctors explain with details on each visit and I never leave confused or overwhelmed.

Dr. Kevor and the receptionist Luis are extremely unprofessional. My daughter got a appointment at 12 pm and because 12:20 I ask Luis how long more it will take. He took a bad attitude and told me that if I want to reschedule I could do it. Dr. Kevor came out and told me that the patient behind my daughter was taking her more time to do everything, then she pointed to the patients mother and told me her mother is there. I was mad went to sit down and told them to just do the work they were doing. Then Dr. Kevor came out again to argue with me and she told me I do not want to treat your child. I follow everything the office and the doctor said. And they didn’t care. Luis told me over the phone that they do not reschedule if I cancel the same day. My daughter was without eating since de ningth before at 10:00am. Luis told me that my daughter will be send to UCLA I was told him that I will look for someone else and he keep saying the same thing. He is a extremely rude, arrogant and doesn’t listen to you. Dr. Kevon is unprofessional, immature and liar. After yesterday. I wouldn’t trust my kids with those persons.

I have been coming here for my braces for about six months now. At first, I didn’t even think I needed braces, but after a recommendation from carolina at the front desk, I set up an appointment and ended up getting them put on. Every time I have an appointment, she’s always there to greet me with very charismatic energy that puts a smile on my face. On top of that, she already knows who I am and what I am there for. She makes everything seamless.
