Early Treatment and Adult Treatment
Early Treatment
Most orthodontic treatment is usually started with the eruption of the adult teeth, around the age of 12 or 13. However, The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that a child receives his or her first orthodontic screening by age 7.
By starting treatment early, we are able to recognize potential problems and correct them before they become more serious. This will save you and your child time and money by preventing future problems before they begin.
Early interceptive orthodontic treatment has proven to be beneficial for the overall desired result. During your child's initial evaluation, we will first determine if there are any problems that need to be addressed, such as crowding, open bite, overbite or gummy smiles. Orthodontic appliances may be then placed to prevent a problem from occurring, correct a current problem or help direct jawbone growth.
