Children's orthodontics

The first impression from the visit to a dentist is very important for children. Because it is no secret that when we become grown-up, we often hear the phrase: “I fear dentists from the childhood”. Oxford Medical clinic will create the atmosphere for your child, during which the anxiety, stress and fear before the visit to a dentistwill reduce to zero.

The first consultation with a pediatric orthodontist can be conducted even after appearance of the first baby teeth, but most often his consultation is recommended, when the child reaches two - two and a half. The dentition is formed by this time and the abnormalities in its development become evident for the pediatrician (or parents). Since this moment and until 16-18 years, your child is recommended undergoing the examination by the orthodontist annually.

The initial consultation with the pediatric orthodontist consists in the oral examination, during which the doctor assesses the crossbite and dentition development in the child. The panoramic dental X-ray or CT scan can be the additional diagnostic method, which the specialist sometimes orders.

If during the examination process, the doctor detects any abnormalities, he prescribes their treatment.

The pediatric orthodontics in Oxford Medical clinic is not only the beautiful and healthy smile of your children, but also bright and multicolored memories of healthy childhood. The modern materials and technical capabilities, recent developments of maxillofacial surgeons and orthodontists not only perform wonders in such difficult field of the dentistry, as the orthodontics, but also delight the eye with multi-color palettes of plates, braces and different “training aids” for children’s teeth.  

The pediatric orthodontists place:

• regular brace systems;
• tooth colored braces;
• sapphire (barely noticeable) braces;
• lingual (invisible for the outside observer) braces.

It is important to take due care of your teeth in young age, when the beautiful and correct occlusion is just formed and can be easily corrected. The even teeth, unfortunately, are not always the guarantee of correct anterior crossbite. During the free consultation, the pediatric orthodontist can determine whether the child has such problems with teeth.

You do not need to worry about your child, as we always find the approach even to the most capricious children and select only the individual and most effective orthodontic system for all age and psychological characteristics.

For older children and teenagers, who are ashamed of the orthodontic treatment, there exist such systems, which are not visible during the conversation with people. There are also many brace systems, which look so that any child would want to wear them – with strasses, different colors, of different materials etc.

In brief, today the orthodontics, as the whole dentistry in general, made a huge step forward and we confidently can say that after visiting our orthodontist, you will be satisfied with the result of treatment and comfortable stay in Oxford Medical clinic.
