When To See An Orthodontist
In a recent study, the American Association of Orthodontist (AAO) recommends children should receive their first orthodontic evaluation at the age of 7. Although you may think it is silly to bring your child to the orthodontist when they do not have all of their adult teeth grown in, but it will actually benefit their progress to a straight and bright smile.
