Early orthodontic treatment, or interceptive orthodontics, is a proactive approach to addressing dental and skeletal irregularities in children during their developmental years

Typically initiated around the ages of 7 to 9, this treatment aims to correct bite issues, misaligned teeth, and jaw growth discrepancies before they escalate into more complex problems in adulthood

Your Orthodontist can use devices/appliances like braces, expanders, or retainers, early orthodontic intervention can guide the proper alignment of teeth, create sufficient space for permanent teeth, and influence the growth of the jaws in a more favorable direction
