Wondering if your child needs braces? Read this post to learn what signs to look for when determining whether or not your child needs braces.

All parents want to make sure their child is happy and healthy for the rest of their life. Regarding their dental health specifically, that often means taking the right steps to form good habits that will help the child’s teeth grow strong and free from pesky issues.

Getting braces is sometimes necessary to make sure your child’s teeth grow straight and in their most optimal position. Still, both parents and children can have a lot of questions about braces, and maybe even wonder why they are a necessity.

The biggest causes of crooked teeth in children are a mix of genetics and behaviors. While kids can inherit certain aspects of their oral health from their parents, such as the size of their teeth and jaw, how thin their enamel is, and bite problems, there are also a lot of lifestyle factors that can encourage crooked teeth.

And while stains aren’t always an indicator that something is wrong, it’s usually a good idea to see a board-certified pediatric dentist to diagnose the issue and make sure your child’s mouth is healthy.

If your child has dental anxiety, there are a few steps you can take to make things easier for them and for you when you visit Timber Kids Dentistry. Read on for more information.
