During the summer vacation, the orthodontic clinic at Beijing Stomatological Hospital was very popular, and many parents and even tourists came to Beijing with their children to seek orthodontic treatment. Doctors remind that the concept of "early orthodontic treatment is better" among many parents is not correct, and it is up to doctors to determine the optimal timing of orthodontic treatment for children. Yesterday, Ms. Yao, the parent, brought Lin Lin to Beijing Dental Hospital. Lin Lin, who is 9 years old this year, is a bit overbearing. Ms. Yao wants to correct her teeth and solve the problem of her child's chin protrusion. Your child has a bony reverse jaw, mainly due to excessive growth of the mandible, which is not suitable for orthodontic treatment at the moment. According to preliminary clinical examination, Lin Lin Lin's "Di Bao Tian" is not a problem with teeth, but a result of excessive growth of the mandible. Wang Wei explained that boys aged 14 to 18 develop rapidly in their bodies, and as the jawbones continue to grow, the protrusion of the jaw will also worsen. She suggested Ms. Yao to wait until the child reaches adulthood for further examination. It would be more scientific to determine whether simple orthodontic concealment treatment or a combination of orthodontic and orthognathic surgery is necessary. During the summer vacation, children seeking orthodontic treatment crowded the dental hospital. To this end, the hospital has increased the investment of initial diagnosis number sources, diverted them through the Wangfujing hospital area, and added weekend number sources and referral green channels. In recent years, there has been a trend towards younger patients in orthodontic clinics, with 70% of underage patients. The youngest child I have ever treated is less than 3 years old, "said Zhang Haiping, deputy chief physician of orthodontics. Some parents have a misconception that the earlier orthodontic treatment is performed, the better the therapeutic effect. In fact, orthodontic treatment for full mouth teeth is only suitable after all teeth have been replaced. Only a few children with symptoms such as chin deviation need early treatment during the deciduous stage. And for the vast majority of children, it is only after having a certain level of self-control that they can cooperate well with doctors and achieve better treatment results.
