All children receive a full orthodontic assessment of the appearance and spacing of their teeth and this is reviewed at each routine examination. Where appropriate, the treatment options for improving a child’s smile using braces will be discussed.
Why might your child need orthodontic treatment and/or braces?
- to improve the appearance of the teeth and face
- to improve the health of the teeth and gums
- to make it easier to eat
- if a child is being teased about the appearance of their teeth.
There are three types of orthodontic treatments:
- Fixed Braces
- Removable Braces
- Functional Braces
