When initiated early, orthodontic treatment can direct jaw growth in children to allow room for permanent teeth and prevent the need to remove overcrowded teeth later. Early orthodontic care can reduce overall treatment time.
Dr. Sullivan recommends an orthodontic screening for your child by the age of seven or earlier if you suspect a problem.
Early warning signs to watch for might include thumb sucking, crowding, open bite, under bite, protrusion or difficulty chewing.
Please feel free to contact the office if you have any questions regarding your childs orthodontic or dental needs.
