When is the best age for orthodontics?
Many parents find that their children's teeth are uneven, and they usually have no time, so they take their children to see a doctor during the holidays. Therefore, some people say that now is not the time to correct mistakes, and some people regret missing the best opportunity to correct mistakes.

Western developed countries believe that they should receive corrective examination before the age of 7 at the latest. Because of several problems in orthodontics, it will be easier and more effective to treat them if they can be found early. Most orthodontic treatments begin at the age of 9 to 14. The recent age is no longer an obstacle to orthodontic treatment, and almost all ages can be corrected. With the smaller, more concealed and more convenient instruments, adult correction has become more and more popular.

In addition, each child's development is different, and the best correction age is also different. Ten to eighteen is the best time for children to correct their mistakes? Modern research shows that the best age for orthodontics is between ten and fourteen.

Method of determining the best correction time

Scientists can know the growth potential of children as soon as possible, and bone analysis can provide more scientific basis for the oral development of children and adolescents.

Through the overweight bone age, experienced doctors trained by experts can calculate the best correction time for children, and determine the replacement time of children's teeth, the occlusion relationship of children and whether the bone development is normal. Even before children's oral development problems appear, effective intervention should be carried out to prevent children from receiving orthodontic treatment.

Orthodontics is not cosmetic surgery, but only suitable for tooth deformity during tooth growth. In particular, the growth of adult teeth has been stereotyped, and it is not worth sacrificing the long-term health of teeth for short-term aesthetics. In addition, long-term correction, the risk of rebound after correction, the possibility of periodontal disease and gingival atrophy during correction are all objective. It is suggested that adult friends should have a general oral examination before choosing orthodontic treatment.

Let's pay attention to the problem of adolescent tooth deformity, grasp the correct orthodontic treatment period, and don't miss the best period. Changing teeth can also change a child's life.
