🦷 First Orthodontic Visit for Children
Detect dental issues early and give your child a healthy smile
The first orthodontic visit is a key moment in your child’s development. At Absolute Health, we offer a dedicated pediatric orthodontic service to detect potential issues with tooth position and jaw development at an early stage.
👉 Recommended age for the first visit: around 6 years old
At this age, the first permanent teeth begin to erupt and the shape of the mouth starts to take form. An early check-up allows us to prevent or address orthodontic issues before they become more complex.
👶 What is the first orthodontic visit for?
During the appointment, our pediatric orthodontist will:
– Assess the growth and development of the jawbones
– Analyze the bite (occlusion) and tooth positioning
– Identify habits like thumb sucking or mouth breathing
– Recommend an interceptive orthodontic treatment if needed
– If no issues are found, we’ll simply monitor growth with regular check-ups.
🦷 What can we detect early on?
– Crossbite
– Open bite or deep bite
– Protruding or crowded teeth
– Abnormal arch development
– Oral habits affecting dental alignment
– Early intervention helps simplify future treatments, often avoiding the need for complex orthodontic appliances during adolescence.
