-;'The Orthodontist Illazel Toy! - 11:!.91 People commonly ask about the our dental appearance. "Role of Heredity" in Such factors as. Itiftimb-sucking, tongue thrusting, premature loss of baby teeth; and a poor breathing airway caused by enlarged adetioid§ or tonsils may each contribute to mal- positiotied ,teeth; but heredity may also play a significant role. When it does, it may be the result of a complicated interplay of factors. For example, it may be that both Hersh DDS MS parents have well-aligned teeth and their first child's Nelson Licensed Specialist teeth may erupt Uneventfully, but then the second child may inherit the small jaw size of the mother and the large tooth size of the father. This mismatch is likely to result in overcrowding that has the potential to be detrimental to the child's future oral health. Another of several possibilities is to inherit the upper jaw size of the father and the lower jaw size of the mother. By properly evaluating the relationship between the teeth and the jaws as well as to each other, the orthodontist can propose corrective treatment that can enhance the child's future oral health and self-esteem. If your child has major gaps between his or her permanent teeth that are tipped or turned out of place, chances are you should consider orthodontic treatment. Proper treatment can make significant improvement over severely malaligned teeth. Although most orthodontists agree that the earlier treatment begins, the better, it is never too late. It is always best for the orthodontist to direct the final erupting permanent teeth into their ideal positions. To determine the best time to begin orthodontic treatment, a consultation should be set up with an orthodontic specialist.
