Your Child and Braces
You think your child’s smile is beautiful — and it is. But seven
out of ten children in the U.S. need orthodontic treatment, and chances
are your child is one of them. Orthodontists specialize in the diagnosis,
prevention and treatment of dental irregularities. And though you can’t
underestimate the value of a perfect smile, there are more reasons to
get braces than crooked teeth.
— Alexandra Lütz
This information was gathered from the
American Association of Orthodontists and the American Academy of
Pediatric Dentistry,
the manufacturers of Stylish
Braces® as well as helpful orthodontist’s offices
around the country via the Web.
