The importance of annual orthodontic exams

Since there is no single timeline for all children and adolescents to begin orthodontic treatment, annual orthodontic exams with our specialized orthodontists for children ages 7-17 will determine the ideal timing for any needed orthodontic treatment, based on your child’s individual development and needs.

Set them up for success

A lot of changes for your child as they grow up, including their teeth and smile. And every parent wants their child to have an amazing smile that boosts their self-esteem and confidence, as well as their physical health! For most children, some type of orthodontic treatment is needed to achieve a perfectly aligned smile for life.

Ensure proper growth

Both our orthodontists and the AAO agree that an initial orthodontic evaluation should happen at the age of 7, to evaluate your child’s unique growth and development of their teeth, jaw, and facial structure. Annual exams ensure any necessary orthodontic corrections are perfectly aligned with their growth and needs.

Prevention is key

Early annual orthodontic evaluations with our specialized orthodontists will identify and intercept any problems with the developing teeth and jaws, which can potentially eliminate the need for more serious intervention as your child grows older (often reducing time in treatment, costs, and added orthodontic visits).
