Before starting orthodontic treatment for children, relevant examinations should be conducted, including taking dental impressions (for the doctor to compare treatment progress), taking photographs (of the face and dental occlusion), taking lateral cephalometric radiographs and panoramic radiographs for X-ray examination, and developing a treatment plan based on model measurements and calculations. When the actual treatment begins, the aligner is used.
There are also many types of orthodontic appliances for children, and the main treatment methods include:
1. Functional Orthodontic Appliance: Generally used for the correction of relatively simple malocclusions during the primary dentition and mixed dentition periods, or in conjunction with fixed appliances. This type of appliance can be removed and inserted by the patient themselves.
2. Fixed appliances are the most commonly used orthodontic appliances, and patients cannot remove them on their own.
3. Functional appliances are mainly used for children in the mixed dentition period or those who have just completed tooth replacement and are still in the peak growth and development phase. Functional appliances can be used to correct skeletal malocclusions.
4. For severe dentofacial deformities, such as maxillary protrusion, maxillary retrusion, mandibular protrusion, and mandibular retrusion, when orthodontic treatment alone cannot resolve the issue, a combined approach of surgery and orthodontics is required.
