Children and adults can both benefit from orthodontic treatments. As a guideline, our team of MINT dental professionals recommends that you have your child evaluated for orthodontic treatment when they are about the age of seven. In some cases, we may recommend an evaluation when they are even younger. A full assessment will be performed so we can see how the teeth, gums, and jawbone are forming, and a plan can be created. Scientific research has proved that facial development is critical from ages 7 – 11 years old. Seeing an orthodontic professional early on gives you the opportunity to plan for developing needs and understand what to expect before it is time to get orthodontic treatment. Even though some patients will not need orthodontic treatment before they are 13 years old, for some, early intervention may help to control overcrowding. Some patients will require the extraction of permanent teeth to allow room for ideal alignment. Having braces at a younger age also helps straighten crooked teeth.

There are many reasons why a patient may want or need orthodontics. A few of the common reasons patients want or need an orthodontic treatment are overcrowding of teeth, overlapping teeth, large spaces between teeth, an overbite or underbite, buck teeth (upper dental protrusion), and a crossbite. Braces or Invisalign from MINT dentistry can create a more symmetrical, aligned smile. At your consultation, your team will pinpoint the exact issue and recommend the appropriate treatment to align your bite.
