Although it is necessary to go to a pediatric orthodontic clinic to be able to properly diagnose if your child needs orthodontics, we offer you some clues to recognize this need.
These are the main signs that a child needs braces. The next step is knowing when to start orthodontic treatment. Once we know if our child needs braces, we will have to decide what is the best type of dental appliance for him or her. There are fixed brackets that help us correct bad dental position and orthopedic devices, used to correct bone growth.
The ideal age to start treatment with dental appliances in children varies according to each specific case. The Spanish Society of Orthodontics recommends making a first consultation with the orthodontist at age 6, who will be able to guide us at the appropriate moment and the need or not to carry out the treatment with dental appliances.
