Child Orthodontics in Tel Aviv: Correcting jaw growth and guiding smile development
Child orthodontics in Tel Aviv helps detect and correct tooth alignment and jaw development issues early on. Early intervention promotes harmonious growth, improves chewing function, and can reduce the need for more complex treatments during adolescence.
At myclinic, pediatric orthodontic treatments in Tel Aviv are performed by Dr. Ruben Abou, an orthodontist specializing in functional and cosmetic orthodontics.20
At what age should you consult?
We recommend an initial orthodontic consultation starting at age 6, even if all permanent teeth have not yet erupted.
This consultation helps evaluate:
- jaw growth
- teeth alignment
- position of the permanent teeth
- habits that can affect development (such as mouth breathing, thumb sucking, or tongue thrusting)
In some cases, simple monitoring is enough. In others, early treatment helps achieve better results.
What issues can be treated?
Interceptive orthodontics can help correct:
- misaligned teeth
- narrow jaws
- bite problems (such as open bite, overbite, or crossbite)
- jaw misalignments
- lack of space for permanent teeth
Available treatments
Depending on your child's needs, Dr. Ruben Abou may recommend:
- early interceptive appliances
- functional appliances
- conventional braces
- growth monitoring before future treatment if necessary
Each treatment is fully customized to support the child's natural growth.
