Is Phase One/Early Treatment a scam?!? ⬇️⬇️⬇️
It’s not, as long as you know exactly WHY it’s chosen.
The truth is, not every child needs Phase I treatment, and we are very selective about who truly benefits from it versus who should simply be monitored in our Growth & Guidance Program. Early treatment can help prevent more serious problems with the teeth and bite, which is exactly why every child should see an orthodontist by age 7, EVEN IF all of the permanent teeth are NOT in yet. Sometimes the right move is to watch. Sometimes waiting too long means missing the best chance to help.
And yes, most kids who need Phase I will still need Phase II later when all of the permanent teeth are in. The goal is not always to avoid future treatment, but to make it easier, less complicated, and healthier when the time comes.
If your child is 7 or older and has not seen an orthodontist yet, or you want a second opinion, schedule a complimentary consult with us so you know exactly what is going on in their mouth. You only get one set of permanent teeth, and we want to help protect them for life.
