The Family Orthodontic Guidance Program is designed to help us better guide your child's growth and development before starting active orthodontic treatment.Successful orthodontic outcomes depend primarily on two factors: Treatment appropriate to the patient's growth and development and patient cooperation.Correct timing plays an important role in your child's orthodontic success. Receiving the right care at the right time provides built-in advantages throughout your child's orthodontic treatment. Seeing a child early and regularly allows us to properly coordinate treatment with each individual child's age, growth and treatment needs. And orthodontists know that early development of a trusting relationship with your child sets the stage for better compliance-and therefore better results-if treatment is necessary in the future.

In some cases, the guidance program can actually reduce future orthodontic treatment needs. When treatment is needed, the program can improve the quality and stability of patient care. In all cases, families save money by eliminating the high cost of x-rays, exams and full orthodontic records. And the program covers all members of your family, including parents. With all these benefits, it's no wonder the Family Orthodontic Guidance Program is one of the most popular services that our practice offers!
