Treatment of the primary dentition

It is of interest to check the dentition of your child already in early age. Some dental treatments, as well as orthodontics, might be indicated already as early as approx. 3-4 years of age. Misalignments of teeth, lack of space for permanent teeth and a beginning malformation of the jaw bones can often be diagnosed early and treatment initiated. In a playful way, treatment exercises (myofunctional therapy), simple orthodontic methods can avoid early on more severe consequences in an older age of your child.

An early loss of a primary tooth often leads to a later lack of space for the permanent tooth. The simple use of a placeholder can keep the tooth gap open for the permanent tooth. In this way we can intervene early on in an efficient way.
