Early Detection of Problems
An orthodontist can spot crowding or bite problems early, allowing for quicker and easier treatment.

At age 7, a child’s jaw is still developing, making it an ideal time to guide proper alignment.
Preventing Future Problems
Early visits may help avoid adult tooth extractions, jaw surgery, impacted teeth, and sleep apnea.
