So you’re wondering when you should take your child to see an orthodontist?

Well, it really depends on their specific situation, but around the age of 6 or 7 is a good time to bring them in for a game plan!

Does that sound too early?

Well it doesn’t mean anything will happen right away, but the sooner you plan for something the smoother it goes. Right?

So we talked about some of your options if you’re missing adult teeth, one of them being implants.

What does that mean exactly?

In treatment we can plan for your future if we know that dental implants may be something you need.

You’ve heard the saying “failing to plan is planning to fail”, it fits perfectly for this scenario because your treatment plan is specifically designed for you to love your smile for all the years to come.

By planning ahead, we can accommodate for those implants to fit seamlessly into your smile so when you’re done in treatment you are prepared for the next step, without having to take any steps backward.

Have questions? Give us a call and schedule a free consultation, we can run through everything with you.

So what happens when your lateral incisors (the teeth on either side of your two front teeth) never come in?

We have a couple of options…

1. We can move the cuspids in their place.

OR

2. We can discuss implant options.

There is no wrong answer, but Dr. Gardner will always share his experience and his expert knowledge on what to expect.

At the end of the day, we want you to love your smile, and if that means exploring various options we are happy to do it.

This is the entire point of our free consultations. You come in with questions and leave with answers and options.

Give us a call today, we would love to see you!

Planning doesn’t stop after your first consultation, it continues throughout treatment and ebbs and flows with the direction YOU want to go.

If your child still has baby teeth that they need to lose, or maybe there are certain teeth that never came in and they need an implant, we always have options that will help support your goals.

So yes, planning for your child’s future adult smile starts now and how it makes them feel 20 years from now is important to us too.
