A Proactive Approach to Children's Orthodontic Care in Beverly Hills
Children should visit the orthodontist for an assessment so that any issues can be identified and treated as needed.
At Waldman Orthodontics, we believe that early intervention in the right type of case can lead to transformative results that can set the stage for a lifetime of healthy dental and orthodontic growth.
By addressing orthodontic issues early, we can often achieve a better result than if we waited for all of the teeth to come in. If you have any questions or concerns about your child, we recommend a consultation by age seven.
Our orthodontic clinic in Los Angeles County offers clear aligners and braces as well as jaw growth guidance with palatal expanders for our young patients.
Consultations & Monitoring for Children
Children should visit the orthodontist around the age of seven for their first orthodontic consultation. If we determine the child does not need immediate treatment, we offer free assessment appointments every six to 12 months.
Early Orthodontic Treatments for Kids
These are a few of the most common orthodontic treatment options for kids at Waldman Orthodontics.
Palatal Expansion
Palatal expansion can support a variety of goals—from creating space for incoming teeth to correcting crossbites and improving airway function.
Expansion can be achieved with a fixed (glued-in) appliance, which helps reduce the need for patient compliance, or with a removable expander, depending on the individual needs of the patient.
