Along with the American Association of Orthodontists, we recommend that a child receive their first orthodontic screening by the age 7..
Early identification of developing problems can often prevent complex future orthodontic problems by:
- Breaking deleterious habits
- Creating room for adult teeth to erupt naturally
- Influencing jaw growth to create optimal facial balance and harmony
- Reducing the complexity of potential future treatment (extractions and/or surgery)
To find out if your child is a candidate for early interceptive treatment, contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation.
