Avoid Future Orthodontic Problems by Addressing Issues in Advance

Preventive orthodontics through braces offers a multitude of benefits for your growing child. You can bring your child in to see Dr. Solis around 8 years old. He will perform a thorough orthodontic exam alongside the regular checkup. If your child shows signs of alignment issues, your dentist will recommend preventive treatments. By addressing alignment issues early, our team can guide the growth of the jaw and the positioning of permanent teeth as they emerge.

This will:

  • Improve Tooth Alignment – Early-intervention braces can create the ideal spacing for permanent teeth. Treatment reduces the risk of crowding or misalignment.
  • Enhance Jaw Development – By guiding your child’s jaw growth, your dentist can address potential bite issues before they become more severe.
  • Reduce Treatment Time – Early intervention often results in a shorter time spent in braces. You spend less money and time in the long run.
  • Improve Breathing – Proper teeth alignment can create better airway function. You will reduce your child’s risk for sleep problems like apnea.
  • Create Better Facial Symmetry – By guiding dental and jaw growth, your child’s facial structure will have a more balanced appearance as they grow up.

Your dentist’s approach to preventive orthodontics is tailored to your child’s unique needs. Dr. Solis carefully examines your child’s oral development to determine the most appropriate time to begin treatment. This personalized care ensures that your child receives the right interventions at the optimal moment.
