Orthodontic challenges like crooked teeth, overcrowding, overbites, and underbites start early. However, identifying these issues during childhood can minimize future complications and bolster oral health. Chatham Orthodontics specializes in dental alignment solutions for children, offering custom braces and phase-one treatments for children as young as seven.
Early orthodontic evaluation and treatment can significantly benefit your child, aiding in jaw function and aesthetic improvement and laying the groundwork for strong, healthy teeth. Modern advances have led to more comfortable and efficient braces, crucial for guiding misaligned teeth to their proper positions. Our experienced team is well-equipped to handle both mild and severe alignment cases with expertise.
Addressing orthodontic issues like crooked or overcrowded teeth early can make a significant difference. Before nine, children’s dental structures are more adaptable, making it an optimal time for corrections. The duration for which your child might need braces varies with the complexity of their dental issue, ranging from a year for simpler cases to 2-3 years for more involved treatments.
Before suggesting any orthodontic intervention, we conduct detailed digital scans to accurately diagnose and plan effective treatments tailored to your child’s needs. Phase 1 orthodontics, aimed at 5-8 year-olds, serves as a preparatory stage for future treatments, often reducing the need for extractions or invasive procedures later on. Through customized dental appliances, we guide your child’s dental development optimally.
For children requiring braces in Siler City, our 2X4 braces target the upper and lower front teeth and molars, ensuring proper alignment and spacing. Children progressing from Phase 1 treatment benefit significantly from this method, achieving improved dental alignment and function.

Dr Johnson put braces on me a little over a year ago and I honestly can’t say anything but good stuff about her and her staff. She’s a straight shooter that shoots from the hip and tells you like it is and let’s you know upfront what the process will be like and what she’ll try her best to accomplish but she will tell you that she’s not a magician either. For me that sealed…

I made an appointment with Chatham Orthodontist for my 6 yr old who has an underbite and grinds her teeth. The receptionist was very friendly when I called to inquire about treatment.
