Braces can improve the beauty of our smile and our dental health at any age. However, there is an ideal time to start wearing braces. In this period, the best end result can be achieved in the least amount of time and with the least financial sacrifice.
During the loss of baby teeth, it is important taking a child to an orthodontist for a consultation and if necessary, start an orthodontic treatment.
Paediatric orthodontics is not only about straightening the teeth and the beauty of the smile, but also about providing a healthy bite for a lifetime.
For the correct bite the optimal position of teeth and jaw bone is required. This position determines the look of our face, the quality of chewing and last but not least how we can clean the teeth. This period is ideal, because it is still possible to control the growth of jaws so to prevent our children from future complications.
Such a process of course strengthens the child’s mental health while increasing their self-confidence and improving their self-image. It also awakes health consciousness and teaches them pay attention to personal hygiene. Not to mention that wearing braces has once again become trendy so kids can feel privileged for having one.
There are dental concerns that should be treated at this stage for the optimal results:
- Correction of overcrowded teeth by creating more space.
- Creation of ideal profile and the formation of appropriate bite pattern by the control of jaw development.
- Alignments of sticking out teeth.
- Keeping up space for still hidden teeth
