Orthodontic treatment for children

It is important that you take your child for their regular dental check-ups with your family dentist every six months. Your dentist will be able to advise you on whether or not your child could benefit from orthodontic treatment. The ideal time to bring your child to an orthodontist is generally around 11-12 years of age, but if you or your family dentist notice any potential issues before then, your child can be referred early for an orthodontic assessment. We can assess your child’s orthodontic treatment needs and advise you on the best time to start treatment, and the type of treatment they could most benefit from. We offer wide range of orthodontic treatment for children and adolescents, with fixed metal or ceramic braces and Invisalign clear aligners. To help make your child’s orthodontic treatment more affordable, the treatment cost can be broken up over smaller monthly repayments with finance options available.
