A child should visit the orthodontist by the age of 7. An early evaluation does not mean your child will get braces right away; it often just helps the specialist monitor development.
You should schedule an appointment immediately regardless of your child's age, if you notice any of these structural or functional signs:
- Bite Issues: lower front teeth resting ahead of upper teeth or upper teeth biting inside lower teeth.
- Crowding or Spacing: Severely misplaced, crowded, or blocked-out teeth.
- Chewing Difficulties: Frequent biting of the cheek or difficulty chewing comfortably.
- Habits: Prolonged thumb, finger, or pacifier sucking that affects jaw alignment.
- Jaw Shifting: The jaw shifts to one side when the teeth meet.
If your child passes their initial checkup, the orthodontist will likely place them on a regular observation schedule to determine the absolute best window to start treatment, which usually falls between ages 9 and 14. You do not need a referral from your general dentist to set up a consultation.
