The Optimum Time For Orthodontic Treatment
Since we believe early treatment should be interceptive in nature and limited to several objectives, we typically like to begin comprehensive orthodontic treatment for all of our patients around the time most of the permanent teeth have erupted. We can determine this "best" time for each patient when we have been able to monitor growth and development for several years. Our approach has eliminated the need in most cases for extracting permanent teeth, for using palate expanders or headgears, and for doing two full phases of orthodontics. Research done at orthodontic programs at the University of Florida, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania confirm our approach to confining orthodontic treatment to a single orthodontic treatment episode to accomplish the desired dento-facial changes for a dynamic lifetime smile.
