How Dentofacial Orthopedics Can Benefit You

Addressing developmental issues at the earliest stage is incredibly important, and dentofacial orthopedics allows us to accomplish this in the easiest way possible. You don’t have to address major issues later in life, but instead can avoid damage to the jaw joint as well as severely uneven bites. Rather, we can redirect the path in which the jaw and facial bones grow as your child gets older. Dentofacial orthopedics also works to prevent crooked and overlapping teeth, just like traditional braces. Keep in mind that traditional braces not only take more time but also require more maintenance in comparison.
