Early Orthodontic Care for Growing Smiles
At Dr. Vamani’s Dental Clinic, we specialize in Interceptive Orthodontics in Hyderabad, a preventive approach to guide children’s teeth and jaw development at an early stage. This treatment identifies and corrects potential orthodontic problems before they become more complex, ensuring proper alignment, healthier oral function, and a confident smile as your child grows.
What is Interceptive Orthodontics?
Interceptive orthodontics, also known as Phase I orthodontics, focuses on diagnosing and treating dental or jaw irregularities in children between 6–12 years of age. The aim is to prevent severe orthodontic issues later in life by guiding jaw growth, correcting harmful oral habits, and creating enough space for permanent teeth to erupt properly.
When Does a Child Need Interceptive Orthodontics?
Your child may benefit from interceptive orthodontics if they show signs such as:
Early or late loss of baby teeth
Difficulty in chewing or biting
Thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, or mouth breathing
Crowded, misplaced, or protruding teeth
Speech difficulties caused by misaligned teeth
Crossbite, overbite, or underbite issues
Early orthodontic evaluation allows timely intervention, reducing the need for extensive braces or surgery later.
