Early Prevention

Early orthodontic treatment, often referred to as Phase One, typically begins around age eight or nine, with Phase Two starting around age 11 or older. It aims to correct jaw growth and bite problems, making room for permanent teeth and potentially avoiding future extractions.

Signs that your child may benefit from early treatment include early or late loss of baby teeth, difficulty chewing, mouth breathing, persistent thumb sucking, speech impediments, protruding or misaligned teeth, and jaw shifting.

Addressing these issues early can prevent more complex problems later in life, reducing the need for extensive orthodontic treatment as an adult. If your child shows signs of needing orthodontic care, scheduling an appointment for an initial exam with our team can help determine the best course of action for your child’s smile.
