Benefits of Joining the 7 & Up Kids Club: Why Early Orthodontic Evaluation Matters

Early orthodontic evaluation is the cornerstone of proactive dental care. By assessing your child's dental development early, we can identify potential issues and intervene before they become serious problems. This proactive approach saves time and money and lays the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.


  • Identifying Missing or Extra Teeth: Early detection of dental anomalies allows us to formulate a treatment plan that promptly addresses these issues, minimizing potential future complications.
  • Habit Correction: Habits such as thumb-sucking or tongue-thrusting can impact dental alignment and jaw development. Through early intervention, we can help your child break these habits and prevent orthodontic issues from worsening.
  • Tooth Eruption Guidance: Proper guidance during the eruption of permanent teeth ensures that they come in straight and properly aligned, reducing the need for extensive orthodontic treatment later in life.
  • Correcting Jaw Growth Abnormalities: Early detection of jaw growth abnormalities allows us to implement interventions that guide proper jaw development, ensuring a harmonious bite and facial profile.
  • Creating Room For Crowded Teeth: Crowded teeth not only affect the aesthetics of your smile but also increase the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Orthodontic treatment creates space for crowded teeth, improving oral health and function.
  • Improving Self-Esteem: A confident smile is a powerful asset. By addressing orthodontic issues early, we can boost your child's self-esteem and confidence, empowering them to smile with pride.
  • Preventing Damage & Trauma to Teeth & Gums: Misaligned teeth are more susceptible to damage and trauma. Correcting alignment issues early can minimize the risk of dental injuries and ensure the long-term health of your child's smile.
  • Fun-filled Experience at Dailey Ortho: Our commitment to providing a positive and enjoyable experience sets us apart. From our kid-friendly office environment to our caring and compassionate team, every aspect of your visit is designed to make you smile.
