Braces for Kids:
Treatment can be started on certain types of tooth problems before all permanent teeth have erupted. Early treatment, usually begun after the four permanent upper and lower front teeth have erupted (ages 7–9), is recommended when certain problems are apparent. This includes issues such as overjet, underbite, deep bite, open bite, crowding, crossbite, midline misalignment, and excess spacing.
Braces for Adults:
Today, 1 in 4 orthodontic patients are adults. The major difference between child and adult treatment is that adult bones are no longer growing. This means that it may take a little longer for adult teeth to move into their correct position. In general, adult treatment takes between eighteen and thirty months.
Advantages of Early Treatment:
Early treatment offers several advantages. It allows us to move the front teeth back so they will be less susceptible to injury, improve the relationship of upper and lower jaws, allowing more normal future growth and development, and improve facial appearance and self-esteem.
It also allows us to take maximum advantage of growth for successful treatment and possibly avoid or reduce the need for further treatment when patients are older.
