Preventive Dentistry for Children: A Natural Approach to Avoid Braces

At Dr. Pallos DDS, we prioritize preventive care to promote optimal dental health for children, aiming to avoid the need for braces altogether. Our approach goes beyond traditional orthodontic treatments, focusing on addressing underlying factors contributing to dental issues.

Between the ages of 5 and 7, children undergo significant facial growth, particularly in the dental arches of the mid-face. It's during this crucial stage that we intervene to influence natural dental arch growth, minimizing the future need for braces.

We recognize the tongue's pivotal role in guiding dental arch growth. By promoting proper tongue posture and function, we ensure correct teeth alignment and sufficient eruption space.

Nutrition is also key in preventing dental issues. Our practice emphasizes a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients to support healthy facial development and prevent collapse.

Dr. Pallos is dedicated to empowering families with nutritional guidance for their children's dental health. For children already born, we offer dental appliances to prevent further facial collapse.

Our approach focuses on creating space for teeth, averting crowding and collapsed facial structures. By tackling these issues early, children can sidestep the need for braces and enjoy enduring dental health.
