Functional Orthodontics – Supporting Jaw and Teeth Development

Functional orthodontic treatment is a specialized approach used in early orthodontics to guide proper jaw development and facial balance. This treatment helps prevent the need for complex or surgical procedures in the future by improving jaw function, enhancing dental health, and contributing to an overall harmonious facial appearance.

When Should Early Orthodontic Treatment Begin?

It is recommended that children visit an orthodontist by age 7 for an initial assessment of their teeth and jaw structure. In some cases, early intervention is essential to guide the proper growth of teeth and jaws, reducing the need for extensive orthodontic work in the future.

How Does Early Treatment Prevent Future Dental Issues?

Early orthodontic intervention is a proactive approach that significantly reduces the need for complex treatments later in life. By addressing orthodontic concerns at a young age, dentists can control jaw growth, prevent overcrowding, and correct bite issues before they worsen. This approach minimizes the need for tooth extractions or surgical corrections in later years, and in some cases, can reduce the likelihood of needing Fixed Braces later on.

Additionally, early treatment improves oral functions such as speech and chewing, which contributes to better digestive health and clearer pronunciation. It also lowers the risk of gum disease and tooth decay since properly aligned teeth are easier to clean and maintain.

Starting orthodontic treatment early gives children a well-aligned smile and increased confidence from a young age, significantly enhancing their quality of life. If you are concerned about your child’s dental health, an early consultation with an orthodontist can make a significant difference, and in some cases, they may recommend a Clear Aligner as a comfortable and discreet treatment option.
