Blast off to confidence!
Kids deserve a smile head start. With Rising Star and DN Orthodontics, kids aged 7 and up get exactly a whole lot more!
When should my child see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that parents schedule their child’s first orthodontic visit by age 7. It’s around this time that their little smiles have a mix of baby and permanent teeth, and because their jaws are still developing, it’s important to monitor how adult teeth come in.
Without growth monitoring, crowding and other potential problems may make orthodontic treatment more challenging later in life.
What is Orthodontic Growth Monitoring?
As your little one grows, your DN Orthodontics doctor can help watch for orthodontic issues before they become more serious, making the work of orthodontics in their later years a lot easier. For example, we’ll monitor:
- Potential cross-bite and open bite development
- Obstructive breathing issues—is your child a mouth breather?
- Position of baby and permanent teeth
- Dental overcrowding or spacing which could hinder or affect permanent tooth development or position
- How permanent teeth come in
- Teeth at risk for injury or decay due to protrusion or overcrowding
- Harmful habits that may cause orthodontic problems (thumb sucking)
- Oral hygiene and overall dental health
- A balanced facial appearance

I’m not exaggerating when I say Smile Doctors gave me my celebrity smile! 😁 From my very first visit the team was warm, professional, and actually fun — yes, fun — during orthodontics. The results? STUNNING. Zero gaps, zero problems, just perfectly aligned teeth that I can’t stop smiling about. The care was expert, the staff went above and beyond, and every appointment felt efficient and comfortable. If you want transformational results and people who treat you like family, this is the place. I’m obsessed — thank you, Smile Doctors! 💫🦷✨
