Each problem determines its own best starting time. In some cases, children with only baby teeth may require orthodontic intervention.
If you have a question – at any stage – it’s best to check with your orthodontist right away. It may save time and money now and dental problems later in life.
Remember that very few children have a prefect bite. In many cases, your orthodontist will advise against treating some minor irregularities or will recommend treatment at a later age. In fact, many adults are being treated for orthodontic problems that were not corrected in childhood.
