Orthodontic Treatments for Children in Lethbridge: When Should My Child See the Orthodontist?. Downtown Orthodontics offers orthodontic treatments for children at our Lethbridge office. Organizations such as the Canadian and American Associations of Orthodontists recommend that a child should have an orthodontic evaluation at around age 7, or at the first appearance of any specific orthodontic difficulty.
Historically, people have associated braces with children and teenagers. However, virtually anyone can benefit from the dramatic, positive changes created by modern orthodontic treatment. Tooth and gum health will also improve, as maligned teeth can contribute to gum and bone loss around the teeth, tooth decay, and excessive wear to the enamel of the teeth.
When a person has their braces removed, they will require a retainer to assist in maintaining the teeth in their corrected positions. At Downtown Orthodontics, you will receive invisible retainers to wear. These transparent plastic retainers are for nights only, so after you get your braces removed, no one will see anything on your teeth during the day!
Everyone, whether they wear braces or not, should wear proper protection for their mouth and teeth if they participate in an activity where facial injury is possible. Our Lethbridge orthodontic office provides mouthguards to all of our patients, while they are wearing braces and after the braces are gone.
Anything your orthodontist places on your teeth, either permanent or removable, to move your teeth or affect jaw growth or position. The metal wire that connects all of your braces. This is the thing that actually moves your teeth to their new positions. The metal or ceramic piece that is glued to your tooth.
