The deformity that may occur in the teeth during the period of childhood may create lack of self-confidence in the advancing ages!


The specialists make warning about the protection of mouth and dental health at every age. The dental health, which leaves the person face to face with various negative matters within the sociological and physiological aspects, may cause the occurrence of unintended consequences in advancing ages when they are experienced at the childhood period.


The Academic Member Dr. Ufuk Ok, who is an Orthodontist, of the Istanbul Gelisim University and emphasized that a correct orthodontic treatment is substantially important, indicated that the deformities, occurred in teeth during the childhood period, might even create a lack of self-confidence in the advancing ages.

THE MOST CONVENIENT AGE FOR THE FIRST ORTHODONTIC EXAMINATION IS 4-5

The academic member Dr. Ok, who emphasized that it was absolutely necessary for children to go through orthodontic examination in order to determine the jaw deformities and erroneous swallowing and mouth inspiration, and provideearly intervention with the best treatment alternatives, said: ‘It is absolutely necessary for you to apply to an orthodontist in order to determine the problems that your child may have experienced at current period or possibly do it in future period. Since it will be a significantly important advantage for future period to overcome the orthodontic problems, brought into light within a short period of time, at a young age, it is definitely necessary to attach importance to the dental and mouth problems of the child.’’

Mr. Ok, who underlined the fact that the best time for the children to have the first orthodontic examination is the age range of 4 or 5, said that indicated that relevant problems might be experienced as a result of the habits of the child at the babyhood under some circumstances. It is possible:
  • To ensure the direction of jaw growth;
  • To prevent the mouth habits coming from the babyhood period (thumb-sucking and so on); and
  • To obtain a more aesthetic dental appearance in the children through an orthodontic treatment to be applied in early age(s).
 
THE DENTAL AND MOUTH PROBLEMS OF THE CHILDREN AT THE AGE RANGE OF 10-15 ARE SOLVED MORE RAPIDLY

Notwithstanding that the orthodontic treatment is applied to all people from every age, the same circumstance may not be applicable for children. The orthodontists may keep the treatment awaited together with the bone age determination in order to evaluate the growth potential of children in some orthodontic deformities as a result of continuation of the children. At these ages, it becomes possible to obtain more lasting results since the orthodontic deformities subject to the jaw are treated by way of the direction of the growth development.

The Orthodontist Dr. Ufuk Ok, who emphasized that the most convenient period for the orthodontic treatment was the said period when the development of the jawbones at early ages was taken into consideration, indicated that the dental and mouth problems of the children between the age range of 10-15 were handled and overcome more rapidly in comparison with those of other ages.
