The best time for children's orthodontics The best age for children's orthodontics **is between 9 and 11 years old**.... **Dentists specializing in orthodontics at Dr. Banyanian Dental Clinic consider 9 years old for girls and 11 years old for boys.** At this age, the growth of the jaws has not yet been completed... for this reason, the application of pressure by orthodontic devices will return children's teeth to their original position more easily... In addition, due to the absence of the child in larger communities such as university or workplace, the appearance of the teeth will be more acceptable for him... but it is better to introduce your child to the dentist from the age of 2 (and when the milk teeth grow) and do his annual examinations.... It will be determined more quickly.... It is not bad to point out here that in case of infection or decay of milk teeth, there is a possibility of ** denervation of children and even ### method of milk teeth **.. Isn't it too early to remove a child's teeth at the age of 9?. This is not the case..... Orthodontics of a child's teeth at the age of 9 is not only not early, but in many cases it is considered the best time for initial intervention....

This method is mostly used to correct minor problems, guide the growth of the jaw or open the necessary space for the growth of permanent teeth. Of course, the use of these tools requires the regular cooperation of the child and the parents who use the mobile tools. ### 2. Fixed orthodontics for children. In this method, metal or ceramic brackets are used that are attached to the teeth... Fixed orthodontics is mostly used to correct moderate to severe dental abnormalities and is usually used in older children or teenagers who have grown most of their permanent teeth... Of course, if the child is young and does not cooperate much in the use of fixed orthodontic equipment, this method of fixed orthodontics is also used. ### 3.... Preventive or primary orthodontics How long does orthodontics of children's teeth take? The length of orthodontic treatment for children depends on various factors, including the skill of the orthodontist, the age of the child, the severity of the dental abnormalities, and the child's cooperation in maintaining oral and dental hygiene.

Messed-up teeth take away this opportunity by reducing the child's confidence in speaking, smiling and attending school....
