Two-Phase Treatment
At Varble Orthodontics, we understand the importance of a healthy, beautiful smile at every stage of life. For certain patients, achieving optimal oral health and aesthetics involves a unique approach known as two-phase treatment. This comprehensive method ensures your child receives the best possible care during their crucial developmental years.
Two-phase treatment is a specialized orthodontic plan that involves two distinct stages of intervention to address complex dental and skeletal issues. This approach is particularly beneficial for young patients who may require early intervention to correct jaw growth discrepancies or significant tooth alignment concerns.
For some children, early orthodontic evaluation reveals developmental issues that could lead to significant problems if left unaddressed. Two-phase treatment allows us to guide jaw growth and correct early issues before they become more severe, ensuring a healthier and more functional bite. This proactive method helps to prevent more invasive treatments in the future.
- Improved Oral Health — By addressing issues early on, two-phase treatment can prevent complications such as overcrowding, bite problems, and uneven jaw development, supporting better long-term oral health.
- Enhanced Aesthetics — Early intervention can significantly improve facial balance and symmetry, contributing to a more attractive smile as your child grows.
- Reduced Treatment Time — By tackling issues in two phases, we can reduce the need for lengthy treatments later, making the orthodontic process more efficient and effective.
The two-phase treatment process
The first phase typically begins between the ages of six and ten. This stage focuses on guiding jaw development to accommodate all permanent teeth and improve the relationship between the jaws. Appliances such as expanders or partial braces may be used to create space and influence jaw growth, ensuring a stable foundation for future alignment.
Once the permanent teeth have erupted, usually around age 11 to 13, phase two begins. This stage involves the use of full braces or clear aligners to refine the alignment of the teeth, ensuring they fit harmoniously within the jaw structure established during phase one. Regular adjustments and monitoring ensure the best possible outcome.
At Varble Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on providing personalized care tailored to meet the unique needs of every patient. Dr. Varble and his experienced team are dedicated to ensuring a seamless and rewarding orthodontic journey, with a focus on patient comfort and education. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and support needed to achieve a healthy, beautiful smile.
