Early Interventions for Kids in Irvine
Early Interventions for Kids Near You
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children receive an orthodontic exam by the time they turn seven. This gives our orthodontist an idea of what orthodontic treatment is required and when to begin. That’s why we offer early intervention for kids in Irvine.
Most children lose all baby teeth by age 12 or 13. Their jaw bone hardens and stops growing by the end of their teenage years. So it’s easy to understand why early intervention is nothing but a win-win for all.
It’s so much easier, less traumatic and time-consuming, and a lot less expensive to nip an orthodontic problem in the bud.
It also gives parents peace-of-mind that they’re providing their kids with the best possible head start to a perfect smile – by catching and addressing an orthodontic problem that could lead to additional problems later on.

Obviously, a child who sucks their thumb, has severely crowded teeth, or upper and bottom teeth that don’t line up, is a potential candidate for early intervention. But there are many conditions a parent cannot see that can only be measured by a professional orthodontic exam.
Early intervention Phase 1 treatment plans, which usually start at around age 9, are like an orthodontic blueprint for successful outcomes. They are designed to:
- help prevent teeth misalignment by guiding the growth of their jaw and teeth;
- regulate the development of their dental arches;
- provide adequate space for their permanent teeth;
- reduce the need for tooth extractions;
- decrease the risk of impacted permanent teeth,
- and prevent speech problems or abnormal swallowing
