At Dental Health Orthodontics a beautiful smile is the side-effect of superior orthodontic treatment. Our orthodontists start the process with a free consultation to meet, assess, and discuss options that are best suited to each patient. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an initial check-up with an orthodontist at the first sign of orthodontic problems or no later than 7 years old. While few children need treatment at this young age, early detection of certain orthodontic problems ensures treatment can be timed appropriately to a child’s growth and development.
