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 be corrected at any age, there are some compelling reasons 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 further questions, please do not hesitate to contact Drs.
