B'nai Mitzvah on page 52

Increasingly, the case is being made for children to start
orthodontic treatment before they reach adolescence. As a
result, some orthodontists report that they are seeing 25%
more patients under the age of eleven than they did just a
few years ago. While problems with teeth and jaws may
Nelson Hersh
be corrected at any age, there are some compelling reasons
DDS, MS
to get an early jump on them. For one, because young

growing teeth and bones are more pliable than older ones,
they lend themselves to greater changes in a shorter period
of time. Early treatment may also reduce the risk of relapse because teeth and
bones that complete their growth under treatment are set more solidly in their
positions.

Every orthodontist's philosophy is a little different, but most agree that when
treatment is begun at an early age, teeth can be moved into their proper positions
more easily, with less physical discomfort for your child, and better retention after
the braces come off. Compliance may also be easier to obtain, as younger patients
are more anxious to cooperate depending upon maturity. Of course having a nicer
smile earlier also contributes to a better self-image for the child.

Whether your child is ready for full braces at an earlier age can only be
determined on an individual basis and much depends upon their eruption pattern
and sequence. This is why orthodontists recommend a consultation appointment
to see what is best for your child.

If you have any questions, please just call or write. The office is located on the
border of West Bloomfield/Commerce Township at 2300 Haggerty Road, Suite
1160, 248-926-4100.
