Orthodontic treatment is the process of moving and realigning teeth to improve their appearance, function, and sometimes the bite (occlusion). This type of treatment is commonly pursued to address various dental issues such as crowding, gaps, misaligned teeth, and bite irregularities, which can affect both oral health and aesthetics.
The goal is to achieve a harmonious alignment of teeth that enhances the overall facial profile and ensures proper function of the teeth and jaws.

MORE ABOUT OUR PAYMENT OPTIONS
At Refine Specialist Dental Care, we believe in the importance of early orthodontic evaluations and treatments to set the foundation for a lifetime of healthy, beautiful smiles. Our experienced team is dedicated to providing personalised care tailored to each child’s unique needs, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
Identifies Issues Early:
Early orthodontic evaluations can detect potential problems with tooth alignment, bite, and jaw development before they become more severe.
Improves Oral Hygiene:
Correcting misaligned teeth can make brushing and flossing easier, reducing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues.
Promotes Healthy Jaw Development:
Early treatment can guide the growth of the jaw, ensuring that adult teeth have enough space to emerge correctly.
Boosts Self-Esteem:
Early correction of dental issues can improve a child's smile, boosting their confidence and self-esteem during critical developmental years.
Improves Facial Appearance:
Orthodontic treatment can enhance facial symmetry and overall appearance by aligning the teeth and jaw properly.
Improves Speech:
Correcting bite and alignment issues can help improve speech development, preventing lisping or other speech impediments.
Minimizes Treatment Duration:
Addressing orthodontic issues early can reduce the overall duration and complexity of treatment in the future.
Prevents Jaw Pain and Dysfunction:
Early orthodontic care can help avoid jaw pain and dysfunction caused by misaligned teeth and bite issues.
The British Orthodontic Society suggests that children should have an orthodontic assessment by age 7. This early evaluation allows for the detection of potential issues with tooth alignment and jaw development, helping to plan appropriate treatment if needed.
Signs that your child might need orthodontic treatment include noticeable misalignment of teeth, an overbite or underbite, difficulties with biting or chewing, gaps between teeth, crowded teeth, or noticeable jaw problems. If you notice these issues, it’s advisable to consult an orthodontist.
The duration of orthodontic treatment for children can vary based on the complexity of the case and the type of treatment used. On average, treatments last between 12 to 24 months. Early intervention can sometimes lead to a shorter treatment period.
Yes, early orthodontic treatment can help address problems such as misalignment and bite issues while the child’s teeth and jaws are still developing. This early intervention can prevent more serious issues later on and often results in a more efficient and shorter overall treatment process.
Yes, wearing a retainer is essential after orthodontic treatment to maintain the new position of the teeth and prevent them from shifting. Your orthodontist will provide detailed instructions on the duration and frequency of retainer use.
