Are you noticing signs of dental misalignment in your child? Wondering when to schedule their first orthodontic visit? Dr. Hardy emphasizes the importance of early evaluation, recommending that children be seen by an orthodontist around age 7. At this stage, permanent teeth are beginning to emerge, making it an ideal time to identify and address any developing orthodontic concerns. Early intervention can help prevent more complex issues in the future and set the foundation for a healthy, confident smile. At our practice, we believe in proactive communication on your child’s growth and development. Giving you as the parent the foundation to keep your child’s smile on the right track from the start.
