What is the best age for orthodontics?
The best age for orthodontics is:

1, before the age of three:

Before the age of three, if there is anterior crossbite, it will have a certain impact on the child's jaw development and should be corrected in time. Correction should be about three and a half years old, and it usually takes six months, so that all the front teeth can be pushed out.

2, 6~ 12 years old:

About 6 years old is the stage of changing teeth. If there is functional deformity, if it is delayed for a long time, bone deformity may occur, so the period of changing teeth at the age of 6~ 12 should be the golden time for correction.

3. 12~ 13 years old:

12~ 13 years old is the prime time for the treatment of tooth deformity, because the child has just changed his teeth at this stage and is in a period of vigorous growth and development. The best period of skeletal deformity is 10~ 12 years for girls and11~/3 years for boys.

Precautions after orthodontics:

1, maintain oral hygiene.

Be sure to wear braces when orthodontics, otherwise it will affect eating. Every time you finish eating, there will be food residues left in your teeth, so be sure to keep your mouth clean, brush your teeth in the morning and evening, and try to choose a special toothbrush.

Choose the correct brushing method. After orthodontics, you need to wear the retainer of 1~2 years, and wear it in strict accordance with the doctor's advice. Never take it off yourself, or it will rebound.

2. Do a good job in nutritional conditioning

Some people will have square marks on their teeth after taking out their braces, which is mainly due to decalcification caused by poor oral hygiene. As long as patients adjust their diet after removing braces, this problem can be improved.

Try not to eat too hard and sticky food, eat less fried food, bones, nuts, etc., otherwise it will have a certain impact on the appliance.
