At what age should orthodontic treatment begin?
Although orthodontic treatment can be done at any age it is best carried out in young
children 8-15 years of age. During This age it Is possible for the orthodontist to foresee
any orthodontic problems that are likely to occur and can take preventive measures. This
is called preventive orthodontics. It is also possible to intercept disorders of the bite at an
early stage so that it does not mature to a big dental problem. This is called interceptive
orthodontics.

The jaws are actively growing by 8-10 years of age and therefore are The ideal time
to mold the jaws. The permanent teeth start erupting by 6-7 years of age and usually
complete erupting by 11-14 years (all except the wisdom teeth). This would therefore be
the ideal time to start treatment. At an early age the braces are more comfortable and the
treatment duration is shorter. Advancing age makes the jaws harder and therefore difficult
to mold the jaws and to move the teeth.
A common misconception is that you should wait for all of The permanent teeth to have
erupted. If the final permanent teeth are guided Into their ideal positions as they erupt
They will be more stable as teeth have a "memory,' and the shorter time teeth are In the
Improper position, the better. Additionally teeth that are biocked may be forced to erupt in
awkward positions, may not be able to erupt at all, or affect good teeth adversely. This Is
a reason why the orthodontic association recommends an exam by age 8-10.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact Dr
Hersh or Dr. Beattie at the newest state of the art orthodontic facility in
West Bloomfield/Commerce Township at (248) 926-4100.
