Hello, young people's uneven teeth still depend on their dental condition. For general tooth deformity, the best time for correction is 12- 13 years old.

Functional deformities, such as children's bad habits (such as biting lips, sticking out tongue, mouth breathing, jaw extension, etc.). ), which often occurs in the tooth changing period (that is, 6- 12 years old), is the best time to correct, avoid delaying correction and develop osteogenic deformity.

The correction of skeletal deformity should be carried out before the peak of children's growth and development (girls 10- 12 years old, boys11-3 years old).

However, for children with anterior crossbite (commonly known as malocclusion), this deformity has a serious impact on the development of children's jaws. Once it happens, it should be corrected immediately, and it can be corrected as early as 3 and a half years old. Usually it only takes about half a year to get a good correction effect.

There is no strict age limit for orthodontics. Parents don't have to worry too much if they miss the best orthodontic period for their children. It is suggested to find a professional orthodontist for examination and treatment in time.
