Did you know that the American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children see an orthodontist for their first check up at age 7? This is the age that orthodontists can start to monitor for any abnormalities with your child’s teeth or jaws. At this young age, orthodontists can guide the growth of the jaws and the eruption of the adult teeth to intercept the problem and prevent it from becoming more serious! Our priority is to ensure that all children get the right care they need at the right time.
