When is the Best Time to Get Braces?
The optimal time for orthodontic treatment is typically between the ages of 11 and 15. By age 12, most permanent teeth have emerged, allowing orthodontists to address issues such as crooked teeth, gaps, and misalignments early on.
Benefits of Treatment
Choosing braces during adolescence offers several advantages:
- Social Life: Many adolescents undergo orthodontic treatment, making it easier for children to embrace braces as a normal part of growing up.
- Metabolic Advantage: Adolescents often have faster metabolisms, which can shorten treatment duration and minimize discomfort.
