Orthodontic Problems

During primary and mixed dentition many problems can affect proper eruption and occlusion of the permanent teeth. Some of the most common aetiologic factors is premature loss of primary teeth, hereditary factors or oral habits.

Early diagnosis, guidance, and treatment of problems in occlusion from the Paediatric Dentist is very important because it can minimize, sometimes it can prevent or in other cases even eliminate complicated future orthodontic treatment.
