Pediatric orthodontics is the process of correcting a child's teeth and bite. An initial evaluation is generally recommended around age seven, as the teeth and jaws are not fully developed at this age, allowing for early detection of problems. Common problems include crowding (misaligned teeth), malocclusions (such as underbites and open bites), and gum problems (such as gums that are too high or too low). Correction methods include fixed appliances (such as metal or ceramic brackets), removable appliances (such as invisible braces and removable braces), and functional appliances (used to adjust the position of the jaw).

小童矯齒常見問題
Children usually need orthodontic treatment due to the following six situations. First, crowded teeth are a common problem. When the teeth are not aligned properly, it will affect hygiene and oral health. Secondly, malocclusion, such as underbite or open bite, may cause chewing difficulties and oral discomfort. Poor development of the jaws, if the jaws are too small or too large, will affect the overall bite. Fifth, habitual behaviors such as sucking fingers or biting lips may cause tooth displacement. Finally, gum problems, such as gums that are too high or too low, may affect the appearance and function of the teeth. Early detection of these conditions and correction of teeth can help improve children's oral health and self-confidence.
