Why Is It Important To Understand My Child's Teeth From A Young Age?
Detecting problems at a young age and starting treatment early can ensure the best and usually quicker results.
Removable appliances (better known as “plates”) are usually used in children which are still growing and have some primary teeth present. The benefits of a removable appliance is that can be taken out for sports and tooth-brushing.
This early intervention takes advantage of the fact that a child's jaw is still growing. For example, a device called a palatal expander may be used to enlarge the child's jaw. Once the arch is the adequate size, there is a better chance that the adult teeth will emerge naturally where they should.
Such plates can be used before fixed braces, or to help correct a minor misalignment, thereby reducing the need for prolonged orthodontic treatment through braces as your child grows. To find out your child's options and whether there may be alternatives to getting braces, make an appointment to see our approachable and friendly dentists.
