Orthodontic Problems to Watch out for in 7 Year Olds
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children get their first orthodontic check up at age 7. Here is a publication by the AAO showing some examples of orthodontic problems to watch out for in 7 year olds. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. It is a lot easier to look at these pictures to understand what an orthodontic problem looks like than to read a description. These photos show examples of an anterior crossbite, posterior crossbite, crowding, open bite, protrusion of the upper front teeth, ectopic eruption of a first molar, an underbite, spacing, and a finger habit. If you feel you need an exam please contact our office:

Thanks for the info. I’ve been looking into getting invisalign in surrey for a while now
No problem. Hope all this info helps. Dr K
Thanks for the post, and I kind of just lost my appetite after I looked at these teeth pictures. I just know that I could never be a orthodontist or a dentist. Because that teeth thing makes me uncomfortable.
Your welcome. Hope you have gotten your appetite back! Dr K
