What Is An Orthodontist And Why Should
You See One?
Wellington & Boynton Beach, FL’s Favorite Orthodontist For Braces
What is an orthodontist and why should you or your child see an orthodontist in the Wellington – Boynton Beach area of Florida (FL)? Dentists and orthodontists both solve tooth problems, but orthodontists don’t do routine teeth cleanings and fill cavities like dentists do. Instead, we have years of special medical training to make a child’s upper and lower teeth meet in just the right way to chew food effectively and have a smile worth a thousand words.
It’s much easier to brush straight teeth, which means they should last into old age with flossing and regular dental checkups. In addition, when we put a person’s jaws into proper alignment, they have much less risk of getting painful jaw joint conditions like temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction.
Most Advanced Braces For Children & Adults In Wellington & Boynton Beach, Florida
With braces now being a rite of passage for pre-teens to living as a teenager, you’d be surprised to find out how soon your child should see an orthodontist. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that a child gets his or her first orthodontic checkup by age seven. Some orthodontists begin treatment much sooner than that. We do not. Why? Because years of research and experience show that most children gain nothing by beginning orthodontic treatment and braces before second grade.
If you are an adult, though, there isn’t a need to worry. We understand that not every family has or had access to orthodontic care. About 20% of our orthodontic patients are actually adults! While treatment with braces may take longer than the average child’s treatment time, we are confident we can give you the smile you’ve always dreamed of!
How Petrover Orthodontics Saves Busy Parents’ Time & Helps To Boost Kids’ Grades
Typically, a parent needs to leave work early to take her son or daughter out of school for an orthodontic office visit for their braces. At the average orthodontist’s office they both wait 30 minutes in a waiting room, then an additional hour while the orthodontist treats the child. The parent then needs to return his or her child to school before returning to work. If you add up the time spent once monthly for two years, that parent has missed almost a month of pay, and her child has missed nearly that much time in school! At Petrover Orthodontics, we know your time is valuable and with virtually no wait times in our Wellington and Boynton Beach orthodontic offices, we help you save time and money!
