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
