Early Orthodontic Treatment at Smile On Dental clinic LLC, we offer early orthodontic treatment for kids from ages 9 to 14 years. Because in this period, a child carries both baby teeth and mature teeth and their jaws are still developing.This treatment tackles the primary growth of teeth and guides the jaw bone into the correct path.
For parents it’s not easier to tell whether their child needs orthodontic attention. Here are some signs that can help in addressing this issue.
After noticing any such symptoms, you can visit our orthodontist at the earliest who can easily figure out if instant action is required.
Orthodontic Appliances
Growth modification, space retainers and palatal expanders are just a few examples of the types of orthodontic appliances that we offer. These unique aids play specific roles in proper tooth eruption, alignment and orofacial development. If your child has lost a tooth prematurely or has a habit such as finger sucking, then an oral appliance can limit the extent of orthodontic correction that’s needed later on.
The components of braces apply pressure, which shifts teeth over time. As the teeth move, new bone forms to provide support for the newly positioned teeth. Braces are made up of several parts and your needs can determine the type of braces you receive. The dentist will advise you on which options are available for the braces your case requires.
If you suspect that you or your child needs braces, the first thing to do is schedule a consultation to evaluate the alignment of your teeth and jaws. This visit is also a great opportunity to discuss aesthetic concerns, like gapped or crooked teeth. Aligning your teeth may be the best first step in a complete smile makeover, as their functional relationship affects the way your bite wears over time.
Brushing and flossing after every meal remain an integral part of caring for your teeth and patients should also avoid certain foods. Hard or sticky foods can harm your braces; avoid chewing gum and popcorn, as well. Regular adjustment and checkup visits are a non-negotiable part of orthodontic treatment, so plan to attend every scheduled appointment. If you take good care of your teeth, work with the dentist throughout treatment, and comply with special instructions (like wearing bands), treatment should go as planned, and you will soon be enjoying your more attractive smile, a healthier bite, and improved confidence! We at smileon dental clinic will help you claim the smile you have always wanted – straight and healthy. Call us today to schedule an orthodontic consultation for you or your child.
