Every child faces his or her own personal set of dental challenges as they grow up.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first Orthodontic exam around the age of seven. Bringing them in for evaluation at this age is the perfect time for us to get a sense of how teeth are developing together from front to back and side to side.
This early baseline can help us prevent and lessen the treatment needs that may occur from erupting incisors, an overbite, open bite, tooth crowding, and more.
