Two-Phase Treatment

Two Phase Orthodontics

This is a planned management program that ensures correct alignment, aesthetics and functioning of teeth and jaws for a child’s future. At Elite Orthodontics we have attained much success with this approach to orthodontic treatment.

Leaving Treatment Too Late

Many times, when patients come to seek out orthodontic treatment they have left the timing of their child’s treatment too late. They think that orthodontic treatment usually occurs once the child has all their adult teeth and when all the baby teeth have all fallen out. In many instances this could unfortunately be an error.

Leaving treatment or orthodontic intervention to a later stage often creates complexities in the treatment plan that can be avoided. By seeing child patients at the early stages of their dental development, we aim to avoid prolonging or complicating future treatment.

The Main Advantages of Two Phase Orthodontics:

  • Intervention with orthodontic treatment at the right time creates the most optimal results for the rest of the child’s life.
  • It will minimize additional and more complex treatments later on in life.
  • We are able to achieve better aesthetics right from the start.
  • We can create more stable teeth with fewer relapse issues in the future.
  • We can establish better functional ability and dental health.

Your Child’s First Appointment

We recommend that your child has their first examination appointment with us around the age of 8. Apart from the advantages already mentioned, this also helps the child to become familiar with our team and the environment before we actively do any treatment.

Phase One

This is an interceptive phase with preventive advantages. It is usually carried out on children between the ages of approximately 8 and 9 years.

This stage is very important and is aimed at early correction or prevention of future dental disabilities using relatively simple and brief courses of orthodontic treatment, often with removable braces only. Intervention at this stage helps to establish the correct foundation for jaw and dental growth and development, and for more effective orthodontic treatment at a later stage, thus preventing complex treatment later on.
