Why Your Child Should Get an Orthodontic Check-up No Later than Age 7- An orthodontist can spot subtle problems with jaw growth and emerging teeth while some baby teeth are still present.
- While your child's teeth may appear to be straight, there could be a problem that only an orthodontist can detect.
- The check-up may reveal that your child's bite is fine. In other cases, the orthodontist might find a problem that can benefit from early treatment. Often, the orthodontist will identify a potential problem but recommend monitoring the child's growth and development, and then, if indicated, begin treatment at the right time for the child.
- Early treatment may prevent more serious problems from developing, and may make treatment at a later age shorter and less complicated.
- In some cases, the orthodontist will be able to achieve results that wouldn't be possible once the face and jaws have finished growing.
- Early treatment may give your orthodontist the chance to:
- guide jaw growth and lower the risk of trauma to protruded front teeth
- correct harmful oral habits
- improve appearance and improve the way lips meet
- guide permanent teeth into a more favorable position
