Why is it important to provide orthodontic care for kids?

Early intervention and orthodontic care can be important in guiding the development of your child’s smile. If minor concerns are addressed at an early age there is often a better chance of avoiding later orthodontic care or even just simplifying their later treatment.

Early orthodontic care at Instyle Orthodontics can:

• Address and correct the development of damaging dental habits
• Create room between your child’s teeth to help prevent teeth crowding
• Guide adult teeth into their correct positioning
• Curb or even remove any future need to extract misplaced teeth
• Potentially simplify later orthodontic treatment

Walking you through our littlest patients’ first orthodontic appointment

‍
It is normal for children to experience a level of anxiety related to visiting the dentist and the orthodontist. Our practice is orientated around our family orthodontic care, thus we strive to make each patient comfortable and eliminate as much anxiety as possible.

Our practice is family orientated, therefor we strive to make our patients of all ages comfortable and relaxed. Our orthodontic professionals and our supporting staff are committed to creating a relaxed and fun atmosphere to make every one of our patients feel at ease.

During your child’s first orthodontic appointment our orthodontic professionals will examine and assess their existing tooth formation. We will also examine the development of their jawbone and the structure of their jaw aesthetics.
