Early interceptive braces and space management were used at our Miami office to address this patient's transitional dentition and over-retained primary teeth. By identifying ectopic permanent teeth early, we were able to create the necessary room for proper eruption, often preventing more complex issues in the future. At Martinez Orthodontics, we recommend a screening by age 7 so the specialist can personally evaluate the "map" of your child's dental development and determine if early intervention is necessary.
