Growth and development

The aim of orthodontics is to optimally guide the growth and development of the jaws and teeth in order to promote function, aesthetics and long-term health.

The right time

The general recommendation is to take your child to an orthodontist before the age of 7. This makes it possible to identify potential misalignments or developmental problems at an early stage and treat them in good time if necessary.

An early examination can help to identify problems such as crossbite, overbite or crowded teeth at an early stage. Timely measures can often prevent more extensive treatment at a later stage.

Step 1:

During the initial consultation, your child will be examined in a relaxed atmosphere. With the help of modern technology such as an intraoral scan, we assess the current condition and whether there is a need for treatment.

Step 2:

If necessary, Dr. Pinter works on an interdisciplinary basis with specialists such as ENT doctors or speech therapists. In this way, we ensure that the treatment is optimally tailored to your child's needs.

Step 3:

The actual treatment is carried out using gentle, child-friendly methods such as aligners or removable appliances. Regular check-ups ensure smooth progress.
