The Orthodontic Journey at Seahorse Kids Dental
The orthodontic journey at Seahorse Kids Dental begins with a detailed consultation with Dr. Grant. This initial step involves a comprehensive examination, including digital imaging and assessments, to understand the specific orthodontic needs of your child. Dr. Grant then crafts a personalized treatment plan that outlines the expected duration of treatment, the recommended adjustments, and the anticipated outcome.
Dr. Grant carefully bonds the brackets to each tooth, connecting them with a wire that gently guides the teeth into optimal positions. While the initial placement may take some getting used to, the braces become a natural part of your child’s smile.
At Seahorse Kids Dental, the orthodontic journey is more than just appointments; it’s a continuous relationship built on supportive guidance and compassionate care. Dr. Grant ensures that your child’s braces are regularly adjusted to maintain progress and address emerging dental needs. Our team provides a thorough education on oral hygiene practices with braces, empowering your child to take an active role in their dental care.
