Most patients see orthodontics as just straightening the teeth, but one of the most important factors is the way the bite fits together at the end of treatment. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children see an orthodontist no later than age 8, even if there are no problems. That’s because the jaw is still developing and it’s best to catch issues early.
Most children go into orthodontic treatment when they are between 11 and 14 years old, but the average for girls is a little earlier, and the typical adult patient might be 26 to 44 years old.
