Children & Orthodontics

Malocclusions, or misalignments of the teeth, can be recognized as early as 2 to 3 years of age. Often, early steps can be taken to reduce the need for major orthodontic treatment at a later age. We can help identify these issues in your child.

Children's Dentistry & Orthodontics

At MyDentist, we recognize that pediatric dental care requires a unique approach. While we provide advanced technology and expert care that parents expect, we also understand that children need extra attention and gentleness to feel safe and comfortable. Our Toronto dental offices are designed to deliver this perfect balance.

Our experienced dental team specializes in treating young patients, making each visit engaging and stress-free. By fostering positive dental experiences early, we help children develop healthy oral care habits that last a lifetime. Schedule your child’s appointment at our Middlefield or Pharmacy location today!

Orthodontic Development Stages

Stage 1: Early Intervention (Ages 2-6):

During these foundational years, we focus on proper dental arch development, monitoring primary tooth loss, and addressing habits like thumb-sucking that may affect oral development. Early treatment can be highly effective and may reduce or eliminate the need for extensive orthodontic treatment later.

 

Stage 2: Mixed Dentition Period (Ages 6-12):

This crucial stage occurs when permanent front teeth and first molars emerge. We address jaw alignment issues and tooth positioning during this highly responsive period, making it an optimal time for orthodontic intervention when needed.

Stage 3: Adolescent Development:

The final stage focuses on permanent tooth alignment and establishing proper bite relationships for long-term oral health.

Our dental team provides comprehensive care through each developmental stage, ensuring your child’s smile grows beautifully and functionally. Contact MyDentist to schedule a pediatric dental or orthodontic consultation.
