Braces

Does my child need braces?

First, that’s not an easy question to answer over the internet. We’re not mind readers, but we are mouth readers. So, we’ll need to get that appointment scheduled before we can make any decisions. We will begin evaluating your child for braces as early as their first visit. Generally most children can wait until their permanent teeth begin erupting into the mouth. This usually happens around age 7 or 8. At this point, we can talk about sending your child to an orthodontist. We don’t place braces at Sprout Dental.
