When Should My Child See an Orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that parents schedule their child’s first orthodontic visit by age 7. It’s around this time that their little smiles have a mix of baby and permanent teeth, and because their jaws are still developing, it’s important to monitor how adult teeth come in.
Without pediatric dental monitoring, crowding and other potential problems may make orthodontic treatment more challenging later in life.
What is Orthodontic Growth Monitoring?
As your little one grows, your Wilson Orthodontics care team can help watch for orthodontic issues before they become more serious, making the work of orthodontics in their later years a lot easier. For example, we’ll monitor:
- Potential bite issues like a cross-bite or open bite
- Breathing issues (are they a mouth breather?)
- Position of baby and permanent teeth
- Crowding or spacing that could affect how teeth come in
- Teeth that might be at risk for injury or decay
- Harmful habits (like thumb sucking)
- Overall smile and facial balance
Wilson Orthodontics Reviews
I had a recent procedure at a periodontist that required immediate assistance with my retainer post surgery. From the scheduler to the assistant that fitted my new retainer, the service was top notch. Everyone was very helpful and understanding. I was seen immediately and they worked with me to make sure that the surgical area remained safe and healthy! Highly recommend!!
My 8yr old son saw Dr Brown. He has great chairside manner. He answered all my questions and gave me the pros and cons of waiting for braces vs now.The wait to get in was long (30min) but other than that, great first impression. They even have a “relax” room with massage chairs! Fancy 👌
I can’t say enough great things about Wilson Orthodontics! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a friendly, respectful, and professional staff who truly make you feel welcome.Dr. Wilson is beyond amazing. He takes his time with every patient, explains everything thoroughly, and makes sure you understand your treatment every step of the way. You never feel rushed, and it’s clear that he genuinely cares about providing the best possible care.If you’re considering a consultation, braces or Invisalign, I highly recommend Wilson Orthodontics. The entire team goes above and beyond to make every visit a great experience. Hands down, this is the best place to trust with your smile!
Wonderful staff and patient care. Highly recommend.
Wilson Orthodontics was absolutely incredible. Their staff was always nice, polite and welcoming. From the ladies at the front desk, to the dental assistants, to the head orthodontist! they were always a pleasure and so friendly. The visits were quick and pleasant.
