EARLY INTERVENTIONAL  ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT

As experts in early interventional treatment (from age 7 to 11), we know this is the ideal time to steer the development of teeth or jaws to avoid future problems, such as tooth crowding, prominent upper teeth (unprotected by the lips) and under-developed jaws.

We encourage the referral of children at the age of six to eight years, so that any abnormal tooth and jaw development can be detected early and treatment planned for the optimal time.

BEFORE AND AFTER

Why is Early Interventional Assessment Important?


An early interventional orthodontic assessment is important so that any abnormal tooth and jaw development can be detected around 7 years of age and we can choose corrective treatment. Very often, the problems with a child’s teeth and jaw are left untreated until they reach adolescence, when all the baby teeth have been lost.

At this stage, treatment may be far more complex than it needs to be and may result in lengthier treatment, or  extraction of adult teeth and even surgery.

Whilst braces are often associated with early teens, this is a misconception and  treatment for children as young as 7 is often overlooked by parents.

If your child has an overbite, overcrowding or underbite, this can be treated with early orthodontics.
