Ask the Orthodontist Tischler 75th P auline and Harold Tischler celebrated their 75th anniversary on July 18, 2018. The couple met in London, Ontario, Canada, and eloped to Toronto to be married in 1943. With their two daughters, born in 1946 and 1950, the young family moved to Detroit. The couple have resided at The Park at Trowbridge since March 1, 2013. One special guest marking the anniversary was professional singer Dorothy Martin, who came to serenade them with a few Sinatra songs. Gaye Tischler (Frank Castronova) and Laurie Tischler Beals (Robert) are proud to call this couple their parents. They are the grandparents of Wendy Beals Nielsen (Michael), Elizabeth Van Dusen (Brett) and Lauren Beals. Kaela and Olivia are their great-granddaughters. • Dr. Nelson Hersh Dr. Marsha Beattie Dr. Amy Isenberg 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.
