When is the best time to begin orthodontics?
Though an orthodontist can enhance a smile at any age, there is an optimal time period to begin treatment. Beginning treatment at this time ensures the greatest result and the least amount of time and expense. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that the initial orthodontic evaluation should occur at the first sign of orthodontic problems or no later than age 7. At this early age, orthodontic treatment may not be necessary, but vigilant examination can anticipate the most advantageous time to begin treatment.

Are you a candidate for orthodontic treatment?
Orthodontics is not merely for improving the aesthetics of the smile; orthodontic treatment improves bad bites (malocclusions). Malocclusions occur as a result of tooth or jaw misalignment. Malocclusions affect the way you smile, chew, clean your teeth or feel about your smile.
Why Choose Orthodontic Treatment As An Adult?
Tooth alignment can change at any age and lead to crooked teeth or a bad bite. This can affect your oral health negatively and lead to gum and bone loss, tooth decay, jaw joint pain as well as other oral problems. Therefore, fixing your orthodontic issues and improving the health or structure of your teeth may be necessary even during adulthood.
