Braces at age 6? Not quite yet—but a check-up? Absolutely! 🦷✨
Did you know that the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends children have their very first orthodontic consultation by age 6 or 7?
While most kids won’t need active treatment at this age, it’s the golden window to catch potential bite issues, crowding, or jaw-growth concerns before permanent teeth erupt. Think of it as a roadmap for a healthy, confident smile down the road! 🗺️😁
Early detection can mean simpler, shorter treatments later—and sometimes, avoiding extractions or jaw surgery altogether.
