Every child is different and the ideal time for orthodontic treatment varies. While many kids get braces between 9-14 when most of their permanent teeth have erupted, some problems can be addressed earlier. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an initial orthodontic screening by age 7. This early evaluation allows us to identify potential problems and determine the best time for treatment.
At your child’s initial visit to Rozman Orthodontics we will do a full exam of their teeth, jaw alignment and facial structure. This may include digital pictures, X-rays and impressions or 3D scans of their teeth. These diagnostic tools will help us create a personalized treatment plan for your child’s specific needs and growth patterns. There are several types of braces available, including traditional metal, ceramic, lingual, and clear aligners, each tailored to meet unique orthodontic needs.
At Rozman Orthodontics we view Braces for Kids as more than just straightening teeth – we see it as an opportunity to establish good oral health habits that will last a lifetime. Our friendly team creates a warm and welcoming environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel informed and involved in their child’s care.
Every child’s journey to a beautiful healthy smile is unique. Some kids progress faster than others and we provide personalized care that respects those differences and focuses on the best possible outcome for each child. Early treatment allows orthodontists to guide proper jaw growth, correct developing bite issues, and create space for permanent teeth to come in naturally.
