"From little things, big things grow". The same is true for orthopaedic and orthodontic problems! A minor problem in a young child can develop into a much larger (and harder to treat) problem as the child grows into adulthood.
At Dental Artistry we like to begin treatment of children as soon as a problem is identified. Early treatment is usually performed with removable plates which can greatly reduce, or even eliminate the need for braces as the child grows.
Younger children are also usually less self-conscious and more co-operative than teenagers, which makes treatment easier!
