Contrary to popular belief, orthodontics is not something to postpone until a child is older. An early orthodontic evaluation, between the ages of 7 and 10, is the ideal time to determine your child's orthodontic needs. An early exam assures maximum dental health for your child. This allows us to evaluate your child's tooth alignment and make a preliminary assessment of potential problems. By doing so, early orthodontic treatment, when necessary, can help minimize the need for more extensive treatment at a later date. Early treatment may also help your child's self-esteem -- a fragile asset that's vital to healthy development.
