Did you know your child’s smile could benefit from orthodontics well before all their permanent teeth come in?
Phase I treatment uses the natural growth years to:
📈 Guide jaw growth
🦷 Create space for incoming teeth
✅ Reduce the risk of small issues turning into bigger problems later
Think of it as giving your child’s smile a head start—which can reduce the need for extractions or surgery in the future.
At Hibberd Orthodontics, our doctors only recommend Phase I when it will make a lasting difference. By using growth to their advantage, they can treat conservatively—because as our doctors always say: “Growth is an orthodontist’s best friend.”
