Dentofacial Orthopedics for your Child's Phase I Treatment
Early Treatment for the Best Results


This picture shows a child with normal spaces between the baby teeth

If there are no spaces between baby teeth, exagerated overbite, convex profile, tongue trust, over use of pacifier, nails biting, thumb sucking, lips sucking, mucosa sucking and other habits, there is a high possibility of having crowding on the permanent teeth with a big effect on children’s facial development and breathing patterns leading to sleep apnea, small chin and facial asymmetry. Starting as young as 2 years old, you may help your children with Functional Appliances that help to develop normal dental arches with spaces for the permanent teeth and to correct the bite controling harmful habits. Simple appliances that the child wears for 10 minutes a day will make a big difference on the dental arches, bite, smile and face.


Give your child a present for life with face focused orthopedics.
