When should my child see an orthodontist?

At what age is a first consultation worthwhile? Which signs are a reason to visit?

As a parent you want the best for your children, including a healthy and beautiful smile. But when is the right moment to take your child to the orthodontist? At Orthodontie Museumplein in Amsterdam we understand parents' concerns and we're ready to help. Read on for useful tips and insights on when your child should see an orthodontist and how we can help create a beautiful smile for your child.

At what age does my child need a brace?

There is no fixed age at which children need a brace. The need for orthodontic treatment varies from person to person and depends on factors such as dental development, the position of the teeth and any issues with the bite. A first orthodontic evaluation is recommended around the age of 10, but that doesn't necessarily mean a child will need a brace at that age.

"At 10, the orthodontist wants to see you."

Orthodontie Museumplein can carry out a thorough assessment to determine your child's needs and tailor a treatment plan.
