American Association of Orthodontists: Recommends Orthodontic Check-Ups no later than Age 7

The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends that all children have a check-up with an orthodontic specialist no later than age 7.

The AAO does not advocate comprehensive orthodontic treatment at age 7.  However, interceptive treatment may be appropriate in the kinds of problems shown on the photo.  Final treatment decision should be made among the parent, child's dentist and orthodontist.
