An early visit to the orthodontist can avoid complex treatment in adulthood. <\/span><\/p>\n

INTERCEPTIVE ORTHODONTICS
\nPediatric orthodontics (between 8 and 11 years of age)<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

Up to 14 years of age, the upper maxillary bone and the mandible are still developing, and some habits such as thumb sucking, projection of the tongue between the teeth or mouth breathing, alter their proper growth, generating deep and narrow palates.<\/span><\/p>\n

A narrow palate can cause open bite problems (lack of anterior contact between the upper and lower teeth), crossbite (upper teeth occlude behind the lower teeth), or tooth position problems: lack of space at tooth eruption or protrusion (teeth pulled too far forward).<\/span><\/p>\n

With our orthopedic interceptive orthodontics, we widen your child’s palate with functional braces, ensuring that the growth of the maxillary bones is proportionate to each other and in relation to the size of the teeth they will house. Thanks to this treatment we correct future problems of dental position and occlusion. <\/span><\/p>\n

CORRECTIVE ORTHODONTICS
\nJuvenile Orthodontics (between 11 and 14 years of age)<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

Our corrective orthodontics aligns the position of teeth in adolescents using brackets or clear aligners. If there are growth problems between the maxilla and mandible, our orthodontist will combine the treatment with orthopedic appliances, achieving a perfect occlusion. <\/span><\/p>\n

To begin corrective orthodontics, the adolescent must have all the permanent dentition and be in a favorable stage of skeletal development. <\/span><\/p>\n

The growth of facial bones is not uniform, with growth spikes and slowing phases from birth to a few years after sexual development. To determine the best time to start orthodontics, our specialist will study bone development and expected growth during the 18-24 months of treatment. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to have orthodontic treatment at this age because once the period of skeletal maturation is over, the bony structures of the face cannot be modified, so that malocclusions of skeletal origin (due to poor development of the jaws) can only be corrected by combined orthodontic and maxillofacial surgery treatments or by a more complex expansion technique called MARPE combined with orthodontics.<\/span><\/p>\n
