What is Orthodontics?
The study and treatment of irregular or crowded teeth is called orthodontics. Our practice always makes a quick assessment for every child seen at each checkup visit for general orthodontic problems. If your child appears to have a problem developing, we will tell you when we see him/her and advise you accordingly. Treatment may either be by simple extractions or by using a brace, depending on the nature of the problem. Your dentist will always advise when he discusses this with you.
Orthodontic treatment is not always appropriate for minor irregularities and your dentist might advise that NHS orthodontic treatment is not available for certain conditions. If the irregularity falls below certain measured criteria, it might be possible to do the treatment privately, speak to your dentist.
