Early orthodontic treatment

Early orthodontic treatment refers to those treatments which start before the age of 10-12. In fact, there’re only a few honest reasons for early orthodontic treatment: The frontal and total lateral cross bite and other rare findings. It’s a pity that in Germany early orthodontic treatment is conducted excessively leading to elongated treatment duration and higher costs. The patients have to cope with absurdly elongated treatment duration, whereas parents and health insurance have to deal with the higher costs.

Tip for parents: As a rule, always wait until your child is 10-12 years old and ask for a second opinion if early treatment is recommended.
