Oklahoma City early orthodontic treatment for children
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that a child receives an orthodontic screening by the age of 7. We offer this complementary screening free of charge.
Even though a child’s permanent teeth have not finished erupting at the age of 7, we are able to evaluate the:
- the relationship of the upper and lower teeth
- potential for crowding
- possibility of open bite
- narrow jaw and cross bite
- abnormal eruption
- jaw posturing to bring the teeth in contact
- growth pattern and potential
Early treatment can reduce the overall treatment time in braces.
To find out if your child is a candidate for early treatment, contact us today to schedule a complimentary screening appointment.
