The Importance of Early Evaluations

The American Association of Orthodontists, along with Dr. Ross and Dr. Rothenberg, recommend scheduling your child’s first orthodontic evaluation by age seven.

It might sound early, but this timing allows our doctors to monitor how your child’s teeth and jaws are developing—and catch any issues before they become bigger problems.
