About the Treatment
What Is Early Interceptive Orthodontic Treatment?
Early interceptive orthodontic treatment is completed when some baby teeth and some permanent teeth are still present in the mouth. The primary focus is fixing malocclusions (bad bites) and ensuring all teeth erupt normally and safely.
The goal is to address developing problems earlier rather than later, meaning patients typically do not need more extensive interventions as they grow older.

Key Advantages
Why Start Orthodontic Treatment Early?
Benefits of Early Treatment
Fix Problems Before They Worsen
Interceptive care corrects bite issues while the jaw is still growing, far easier than treating an adult.
Guide Healthy Tooth Eruption
Ensures permanent teeth come in at the right angle and position, reducing crowding and spacing issues.
Avoid Complex Treatment Later
Some corrections are only achievable in younger children. Acting early gives Dr. Hakim more options and better outcomes.
What Is the Right Age to Start?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. At this stage, Dr. Hakim can identify issues with jaw growth, bite, and spacing, and act at exactly the right time.
