Back-to-School Orthodontic Evaluation: Ensure a Confident Smile | Molen Orthodontics

It’s the Perfect Time for an Orthodontic Evaluation Before Heading Back to School

Most back-to-school checklists include backpacks, school supplies, clothes and perhaps a fresh new haircut. But, there is one more thing you should add to the list to start the year off right – your child’s first orthodontic visit (for ages 7 and up). As the carefree days of summer are wrapping up and kids are heading back to school soon, now is the perfect time to bring your child to Molen Orthodontics to see one of our renowned doctors for a complementary evaluation.

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends bringing your child to an orthodontist by the age of 7. Although the odds are your child won’t need braces or treatment at that point, seeing us in early childhood can prevent abnormal growth.

At Molen Orthodontics, we offer 100% free X-rays, dental images and evaluation. During the free evaluation, we give your child’s jaw, palate, airway, and teeth a thorough examination to make sure that everything is growing the way that it should be. When needed, we use 3D X-ray and 360-degree cameras that help evaluate and determine the best treatment for your child.

So when you’re getting your child prepared for school don’t forget about the importance of having an orthodontic evaluation! Making sure your child receives proper orthodontic care through Molen Orthodontics can give him or her a beautiful, natural-looking smile along with self-confidence at school and for the rest of their life!

Call us today at (253) 939-2552 to book a FREE examination at one of our locations in Auburn, Enumclaw or Sumner (Bonney Lake).
