What is interceptive orthodontics?

It is treatment carried out while the child is still growing, to correct or guide bite and jaw problems before they become established. In many cases it simplifies or shortens treatment in adolescence.

What signs should parents look for?

Upper teeth biting inside the lower ones, front teeth that don't meet, lack of space for incoming teeth, mouth breathing, snoring, and habits like pacifier use or thumb sucking after age 3.
