Laying the Groundwork for a Lifetime Smile

Phase One

Is your child between 7 and 10 years old? This is the perfect time to start orthodontic care! Phase One treatment at PS Orthodontics is tailored for young children to address early jaw growth and dental alignment issues. Early intervention can simplify future treatments, often reducing the need for tooth extractions or more extensive orthodontic work later.

Our approach during this critical growth phase is focused on setting up your child's mouth for the arrival of their permanent teeth and improving overall facial development. With tools like expanders and partial braces, we gently guide your child's dental development to ensure enough room for incoming teeth, aiming for a balanced, healthy smile. Starting this journey early not only supports better oral health but also boosts your child's self-esteem as they grow.

An expander is most effective while a child is still growing, typically around ages 7 to 10. It’s a straightforward treatment that involves a custom-fitted device your child wears for a few months. The expander gently applies pressure to widen the jaw, a crucial step in preparing for a healthy adult smile. Plus, it’s usually a quick adjustment for kids to get used to.

If you think your child could benefit from an expander, we’re here to help explain the process and get started. Early intervention can make a significant difference in your child’s oral health and the aesthetics of their smile. Let’s set the foundation for a beautiful, healthy smile together!
