When To Start Braces

Prevention is better than the cure. At what age should you bring your child to the orthodontist for an evaluation? At Grummons Orthodontics, we say, “8 is Great, 9 is Fine” for your first orthodontic evaluation. Our exams are always complimentary. Dr. Grummons believes in doing “the right thing at the right time” for your child. We specialize in growing jaws orthopedically in order to make room for permanent teeth and avoid having to remove permanent teeth as part of our treatment plan whenever possible. This is a NO HEADGEAR ZONE!!!!
