Early Detection
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that every child have an orthodontic evaluation by the age of 7. Early detection and treatment gives your child a much better chance for natural and normal dental development. By working with your childs natural growth, we can prevent problems from becoming worse, and give your child a lifetime of healthy smiles!
Adolescent Treatment
By taking advantage of orthodontic treatment as an adolescent, you are setting the stage for a lifetime of a healthy, confident smile.
During the adolescent years, it is important to influence the alignment of the teeth and jaws. Treatment will depend on what stage of growth and development a teenager has achieved. Dr. Dunbar will perform a diagnostic evaluation in order to formulate a specific treatment plan based on your individual needs.
Adult Treatment
Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. One of every five patients in orthodontic treatment is over 21.
