This can be as simple as the palate not being wide enough, a cross-bite, or a mismatch between the upper and lower jaws. This is called phase 1, as further treatment may be needed when the child gets older. This phase of treatment may begin as early as age 8. The safest and best way to know when to begin orthodontic treatment is to visit an orthodontic specialist to look at your child's situation. Even if treatment is not necessary, the clinical exam can be referenced in the future, to see how the mouth is changing, dental eruption, and growth direction, which are all factors that assist in determining treatment. It is always best to find out early, rather than late, when is the best time for treatment. Many orthodontists offer a free consultation and a referral is not necessary from the dentist. Drs. Hersh, Beattie & Isenberg invite you to join our patient family.

Full Braces or comprehensive orthodontics is most commonly begun on kids between the ages of 10' and 14, but this depends upon the dental eruption and maturity. All permanent teeth do not need to be erupted for many reasons. Orthodontic philosophy and treatments utilize growth, and guidance of erupting teeth into their ideal positions. Teeth may be blocked or have insufficient room for eruption, so waiting may complicate treatment. Teeth are more comfortably moved when bones are young and teeth have not become "set" in their position. The treatment options can become limited or complicated by waiting.
