Will my child grow out of their orthodontic result if we start too early?
You may be hesitant to have an orthodontic assesssment if your child still has baby teeth, but the truth is that when children are young there can be an opportunity to make room for the future adult teeth and to guide the growth of your child’s jaws.
Early signs
Signs your child needs an early orthodontic assessment
- Crowded baby teeth
- Early or late loss of baby teeth
- Front teeth that stick out and could be hit during sport or play
- Finger-sucking after the age of 7
- A lisp when speaking and or mouth-breathing
Please note, your child must be between 7 & 11 years to qualify for our free tele-health assessment.
It takes less than 5 minutes to upload photos of your child’s teeth. The photos and information you provide are kept strictly confidential
Dr Lim will personally review these photos and make an orthodontic assessment
Dr Lim will email you a preliminary assessment. If your child would benefit from early orthodontic treatment you will be provided with a quote and invited into the clinic to have X-rays and to get started with treatment
You do not need a dentist referral to have an orthodontic assessment with us.
