A common orthodontic myth is that you should wait until all of your baby teeth have fallen out to start treatment. That is completely FALSE! We recommend every child see an orthodontist by the age of 7, so we can begin to correct small problems before they become a much bigger issue! Stopping issues right at the beginning ensures a MUCH easier and smoother treatment overall.
