What's the best age to visit the orthodontist?
If you want to improve the look and feel of your smile, then any age can be a great age to see the orthodontist. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children first visit an orthodontist around the age of seven; however, orthodontic treatment is not exclusive to children and teens, with about one in every five orthodontic patients being over the age of 21. Whether you're considering treatment for yourself or for a child, any time is a good time to visit the orthodontist.

The Milestone Visit
Why is age 7 is the best age to start orthodontic treatment? There are many problems that can be corrected after the age of seven due to the malleability of the jaws and ease with which jaw-related problems can be corrected at this age. These issues are best corrected at a younger age when the jaw growth has not yet been completed. 

Palatal expander: Your child may be a good candidate for palatal expansion, which can widen the upper jaw and help reduce crowding in abnormally narrow arches. Ideally, a palatal expander is used when a patient is still growing. Expansion occurs when the growth plate or suture in the middle of the palate is stretched, and the two halves are pushed apart. As the two halves are spread, new bone is added. 

Early orthodontic intervention, like a short time in braces, can correct problems early on to prevent larger problems later.  An example of interceptive treatment is correcting an anterior crossbite. Other forms of early orthodontics, including a limited set of front braces, expanders, removable appliances, and space maintainers can correct problems at a young age when it is much easier to correct these problems and make future treatment easier. 

One of three scenarios will be the result of your child's orthodontic evaluation:

1. There may be no need for treatment recognized at that time.  

2. Treatment may be necessary in the future, so the child will be followed periodically while the face and jaws continue to develop.  

3. A problem that would benefit from early treatment already exists, and you are in the right spot to get started!
