The Importance of Early Check-Ups

Following the American Association of Orthodontists' advice, we encourage a first orthodontic visit by age seven. This is when Dr. Kanning can identify issues such as overcrowded teeth or misaligned jaws at an early stage.

This early assessment allows us to get a clear picture of your child’s dental health and determine the most effective course of action.

This initial visit might reveal that your child's dental growth is on the right path, or we may recommend minor interventions to prevent more significant treatments in the future.

Advantages of Starting Young

The major benefit of early evaluations is the ability to address potential problems faster. By steering your child’s dental development from an early age, Dr. Kanning aims to reduce or eliminate the necessity for extensive orthodontic procedures down the road.

Starting orthodontic care early not only contributes to a well-aligned bite. Early treatment also supports essential functions such as chewing and speaking while bolstering your child’s self-esteem.
