Orthodontic treatment typically begins between ages 8 and 14 but adults can also have braces. A full assessment of your case will be carried out by your orthodontist who will plan a course of treatment specifically tailored to your needs. A typical consultation involves examination, impressions for study models and creation of a treatment plan. Depending on your needs, you may be recommended one of the following types of braces:.
The best age to have braces
On average, the most common time for orthodontic treatment is during your teenage years , especially between the age of 11-15. The reason being is that by age 11, the vast majority of people will already have most of their permanent teeth.
It's also easier to detect possible issues such as crooked teeth, bad bites or potential gaps at this young age. Another benefit of teenage orthodontics is that your body is growing at a rapid pace, meaning an orthodontist has a better chance of taking advantage of these growth spurts in order to help improve your overall bite.
