Different appliances are available to assist children of all ages and with various orthodontic issues. Many of these can be worn at night or during the day, depending on their needs.
For children younger than teenage years, especially during mixed dentition, Dr. Hu offers the DNA appliance, the VIVOS appliance system, and Ortho-Tain, even as early as three years old in some cases.
Dr. Hu is certified with Biomodeling Solutions and VIVOS to provide oral appliances for kids and offers diet and nutritional recommendations that are key for craniofacial growth and development.
DNA Appliance
Both adults and children use this line of removable orthodontic appliances throughout the day and night to replace traditional fixed orthodontic appliances. Without surgery, medicines, or injections, the DNA Appliances use painless, natural epigenetic developmental principles to repair and align teeth, promote face development, eliminate TMD difficulties, and improve the upper airway.
VIVOS Appliance System
The upper and lower jaws go through their most crucial growth stages during childhood. Early intervention, diagnosis, and therapy can significantly affect a child's general health and well-being.
The VIVOS system is simple to use; it is a detachable device worn in the evening and while sleeping. The appliance is custom-made to fit the mouth and aid in the proper development of the upper and lower jaws.
Ortho-Tain
Ortho-Tain refers to a complete system of orthodontic aligners and appliances that are pleasant, clear, and custom-designed. Treatment choices come in a series, with different appliances having different objectives to assist children of all ages with various orthodontic issues.
Importance of Early Diagnosis
Giving your children a head start on orthodontic treatment is essential, as problems can worsen with age. In most cases, early diagnosis and intervention will lead to less severe treatment needs and a quicker, more efficient overall outcome. This means fewer problems down the line during adulthood.
