Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for adults looking to perfect their smiles, in fact, early orthodontics for children is often the key to preventing bigger dental issues later in life. At the Centre of Dental Excellence in Stanmore, we specialise in private orthodontic care for children, giving your child the best start toward a healthy, confident smile.
Why Do Children Need Orthodontic Treatment?
Children may develop orthodontic issues such as:
- Crowded or crooked teeth
- Overbites, underbites or crossbites
- Gaps or spacing issues
- Jaw misalignment
- Early or late loss of baby teeth
Without early intervention, these problems can affect speech, chewing, confidence, and overall oral health.
Why NHS Orthodontics May Not Cover Your Child’s Case
Due to limited NHS resources, up to 50% of children in Stanmore are not accepted for NHS orthodontic treatment, especially for mild or moderate alignment issues.
Also, current NHS orthodontic waiting times in HA7 exceed 12 months, causing many families to explore private orthodontic care to avoid delays and access wider treatment options, including discreet solutions.
Final Thoughts
Early orthodontic treatment is not just about straight teeth, it’s about preventing future problems and boosting your child’s self-esteem. At Centre of Dental Excellence, we’re here to support your child’s smile journey from the very beginning.
When Should Your Child See an Orthodontist?
The British Orthodontic Society recommends children see an orthodontist around age 7. At this stage, the jaw is still developing, and early signs of misalignment can be spotted.
Early intervention can:
- Guide proper jaw growth
- Make space for incoming adult teeth
- Prevent more complex treatments later
- Improve facial development and symmetry
