Orthodontic Treatment

Adolescent Treatment

It is best to see an orthodontist by age 7. Although most children do not need early treatment and can wait to have braces until all their adult teeth are in, about age 11-12, it is good to see an orthodontist early to evaluate their orthodontic needs for possible tooth impactions, damaging habits, or other concerns that may be more difficult to treat later on.

At your complimentary consultation, Dr. Baker will thoroughly evaluate facial balance and any orthodontic needs you may have along with an extensive TMJ (temporomandibular joint) evaluation. Dr. Baker will then determine if orthodontic treatment is indicated and when the best time to begin treatment would be.

Dr. Baker will give you the information needed to understand what the orthodontic concerns are, how they can be treated, an estimate of how much it will cost, and the approximate length of treatment time needed to give your child the best possible smile and result.
