Some orthodontic problems are easier to correct while your child’s jaw is still growing, but it’s not always obvious when early treatment is actually necessary versus something that can wait until all their permanent teeth come in. Starting too early or too late can both make treatment more complicated.
At Purple Tooth Dental, we evaluate kids for early, or Phase I, orthodontic treatment when their bite or jaw development calls for it, and we’re upfront when a child is better off waiting. Every recommendation is based on your child’s specific growth and development, not just their age.
Dr. Jon Kaczmarski, DMD completed additional orthodontics training during his pediatric dental residency and has since treated hundreds of children with braces, giving him a broad view of when early treatment actually helps. He and our team also speak Spanish for families throughout Mount Holly.
