Do you wonder why some of your child’s friends have an appliance in their mouths? It is because there are some alterations in the developing dentition that need preventive or interceptive orthodontic treatment at an early age. In Baby2Teens Pediatric Dentistry, it is our responsibility to detect and treat those alterations to create an aesthetically smile together with a stable occlusion, improving the self-esteem of your child. Depending on the complexity of the case, doing this early treatment doesn’t necessarily mean that your child won’t need full braces in the future, but in many cases, it can reduce the duration of the future treatment significantly.
