At Hawksburn Village Dental, we’re devoted to giving you the dental care you and your family deserve.
When Should You Begin Orthodontic Treatment?
There isn’t an exact age when children should begin orthodontic treatment. However, at Hawksburn Village Dental we believe that if treatment starts at earlier ages like 5-10 years old, it gives us the opportunity to prevent future crowding and encourage stable growth. We refer to this phase as Interceptive Orthodontics.
Our second phase, better known as Conventional Orthodontics, involves using braces. We recommend starting this treatment at age 11 or 12 because usually by this age permanent teeth will have emerged. Our dental office also offers options for adults, a popular one being Smilefast.
What Causes Crowding?
Crowding can be caused by several factors, more specifically poor oral habits. Interceptive orthodontics targets these harmful habits to develop the jaw correctly and allow room for adult teeth to grow. This treatment will also improve the child’s appearance, helping them feel more comfortable about themselves.
The Benefits of Early Orthodontic Treatment
There are several benefits of starting orthodontic treatment at an early age. For instance, serious problems can be prevented with braces. They help in all the following:
- Creates facial symmetry by guiding jaw growth
- Corrects bad oral habits
- Readjusts teeth to straighter, more favourable positions
- Treating at an early age reduces overall treatment time
Other services that we offer to improve your smile include:
- Cosmetic procedures
- Smilefast (for adults)
- Cleanings
- Annual exams
- Restorative care
- Implant dentistry
- Teeth whitening
Let us be your go-to dental office. We’ll take care of you and your family with all your dental needs.
