Orthodontics
Orthodontics and pediatric dentistry work hand-in-hand to protect your child’s oral health, enhance confidence, and set the stage for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
Pediatric dental care is about more than cleanings and cavity prevention, it’s also about guiding the growth and development of your child’s smile. That’s where orthodontics plays a key role.
An early orthodontic evaluation can:
Detect bite problems, crowding, or spacing issues while your child is still growing
Guide jaw and tooth development to prevent more serious problems later
Support healthy chewing, speech, and facial balance
Help permanent teeth come in properly and reduce the need for future extractions or more complex treatment
The Benefits of Early Action
Orthodontic issues are often easier to correct during childhood, when the jaw and facial bones are still developing. By working closely with your pediatric dentist, orthodontic care can create a healthier foundation for your child’s long-term dental health - making future treatment shorter, simpler, and more comfortable.
