What is the best age to start treatment?
The American Association of Orthodontics recommends that every child should first visit an orthodontist at age 7. An early examination allows the orthodontist to determine how and when a child’s particular problem should be treated for maximum improvement. In some cases, early treatment achieves results that are unattainable once the face and jaws have completed growing.
