How do I know if my child needs orthodontic treatment?

Your dentist will keep an eye on your child’s teeth during their regular check up appointments, and be able to refer them for orthodontic treatment at the most appropriate time, if necessary. Sometimes, it is clear your child would benefit from treatment, as you may be able to see large gaps or misaligned teeth, but in other cases it may be more subtle. At St.James Dental, we are happy to discuss all treatment options with you and your child, and ensure they have the best foundation for healthy teeth for life.
