As the parent of a young child, you may not be thinking of long-term dental care, but we are doing just that. Our office follows a child from their first visit through their entire adult life, providing comprehensive care under one roof and eliminating the need to search for separate providers for you and your family.
Parents and children alike can benefit by utilizing a bi-specialty practice that deals with pediatric dentistry and orthodontia. We provide early orthodontic treatment starting as young as age 8. This early treatment helps to identify potential issues concerning bite and jaw problems. This proactive measure can possibly save children from needing care later in their late teens or adulthood. Orthodontic treatments later in life can be more uncomfortable and take longer to treat.
By acting early, you can conceivably save that from happening to your child.
Benefits of a Bi-Specialty PracticeÂ
Think of your orthodontist and dentist as your oral care team. Your dentist can identify issues with your jaw or teeth that may require a specialist. At that point, he or she may refer you to an orthodontist. When you have braces, it is crucial to maintain good oral hygiene. This includes regularly visiting the dentist for professional checkups and cleanings.
A bi-specialty practice allows you to visit these two professionals under one roof! In a bi-specialty practice, both dentists and orthodontists can share their knowledge and expertise to provide the best possible care for their patients. Here are some perks of visiting a bi-specialty practice like Wake Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry:
- Dentists and orthodontists can share their knowledge and expertise.
- Dentists and orthodontists can work together to create a treatment plan that is specifically tailored to the needs of the patient.
- Bi-specialty practices can offer a wide range of services.
- Patients can feel confident knowing that they are receiving the best possible care from a team of specialists, all under one roof!
