At what age should my child be checked?

The Indian Orthodontic Society and AAO both suggest a first orthodontic screening by age 7, when jaw problems are easiest to correct.

Children feel pressure and sometimes a tickle behind the nose for a few minutes after each activation. Most adapt within days.

Invisalign® Palatal Expander for children

A narrow upper jaw causes crossbites, crowding and mouth breathing. The Invisalign Palatal Expander is a 3D-printed, removable-free digital device that widens the palate more comfortably than traditional banded metal expanders — with no impressions needed.
