Benefits of early Orthodontic Treatment:
orthodontist could prescribe a fixed or removable “appliance” – a device used to move teeth, change the position of the jaw, or hold teeth in place in order to bring about desirable changes. Sometimes no appliances are necessary. Rather, removal of some baby teeth may help the permanent teeth erupt better. The extractions will be timed to take best advantage of a patient’s growth and development.
The habit Breaking appliances therapy involves breaking the destructive habits of dental issues in children like thumb sucking and fingers sucking.
Thumb sucking, or sucking on any fingers, is a common habit for young children.
If diagnosed in time, the tooth misalignment caused by thumb sucking can be treated with less invasive treatments.
Usually the habit stops within days, but the appliance remains in the mouth for approximately six months in order to make sure the practice has completely vanished.
