Treatments / Preventative dentistry / Children's dentistry
Children's teeth.
Regular dental care is important for both children and adults. By the age of two, your child should have already visited a dentist for a check-up.
The right timing
Ages 7 to 9 is the orthodontic window.
Between 7 and 9 years old is the ideal time for orthodontic evaluation because of how teeth are developing at this age. Early detection identifies underbites, crossbites and overbites before they become serious.
Watch for loud breathing, a clicking jaw, unusual baby tooth loss, disproportionate teeth or cheek chewing.
