Early Orthodontic Treatment (Interceptive Orthodontics)

Guiding Growing Smiles at the Right Time

Children’s jaws are still developing. Interceptive Orthodontics allows us to identify and correct developing bite problems early, reducing the need for more complicated treatment in the future.

Does My Child Need an Orthodontic Evaluation?

Your child may benefit if they have:

  • Crowded teeth
  • Crossbite
  • Open bite
  • Deep bite
  • Protruding front teeth
  • Early or delayed loss of milk teeth
  • Jaw growth imbalance

What Is Interceptive Orthodontics?

Interceptive Orthodontics is early treatment that guides the growth of the jaws and developing teeth while your child is still growing.

The ideal age for evaluation is around 7 years, even if braces are not immediately required.

Benefits of Early Orthodontic Treatment

  • Guides proper jaw growth
  • Creates space for permanent teeth
  • Corrects bite problems early
  • May reduce the need for future tooth extractions
  • Can simplify later braces treatment
