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

If you’re looking for an orthodontist, I highly recommend Smile Doctors! I just finished my Invisalign treatment and couldn’t be happier with the results. I’m smiling more than ever!Every visit was quick and efficient, and the staff was always friendly, professional, and welcoming. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. Great experience and great team—I definitely recommend Smile Doctors!
They are always so friendly and efficient!
The customer service was Top Tier! Today, was my last day wearing aligners. I was fitted for my retainer and onto the whitening process. I’m SoSo Satisfied! I would definitely recommend to anyone but especially those who are older.
