Early treatment
When is the best time to start the orthodontic treatment?
There is a golden period to start the treatment, even though orthodontists can give a more beautiful smile at any age. Starting the treatment at the perfect time can guarantee the best result and less time and charge. The American Association of orthodontist recommend that a primary orthodontic assessment should be performed at the first sign of orthodontic problems or pre-7 years. At this early age, the orthodontic problem may not be significant. However, the early examination can expect the most suitable timing to start the treatment.
Early Treatment Related Instruction
Early assessment provides better problem detection and greater opportunity for more effective treatment. Early intervention guides growth and development, preventing the serious problems from occurring later on. When orthodontic intervention is not necessary, an orthodontist can observe the growth and development accurately, and begin treatment when they are ideal.
The first permanent molars erupt at the age of 7, establishing the posterior bite. During this time, the orthodontist can evaluate the relationship between the teeth in three dimensions. For example, the presence of erupted incisors can indicate to overbite, open bite, crowded teeth or gingival smile. A conveniently examination increases the chances of having a charming smile.
Some of the most palpable results of early preventive treatment are:
– Finding space for crowded erupted teeth.
– Create facial symmetry by influencing the growth of the jaw.
– Decrease the risk of anterior Snaggletooth traumas.
– Keep space for non-erupted teeth.
– Decrease the need of tooth extraction.
– Decrease the orthodontic treatment period.
Orthodontic treatment works on improving the smile aesthetics, chewing, functional abilities and speaking.
Orthodontic treatment improves bad bites (malocclusions). Malocclusions occur as a result of jaw or tooth disalignment. Malocclusions effect on the way you smile, chew, brush your teeth or feel your smile.
These cases, showcases before and after treatment in early treated cases.
