Treatment with children's plates usually begins between the ages of 5 and 12, when the child still has baby teeth, but permanent teeth are already beginning to erupt.
This is the ideal time for correction, as the jaw bones are still growing and are easily reshaped. Plates effectively help correct early bite problems and prevent the development of more serious problems in the future.
Removable plates are designed to correct mild to moderate malocclusions in the early stages. They can be removed by the child while eating or brushing teeth, making oral hygiene easier.
Braces, on the other hand, are non-removable devices that are used for more serious malocclusion corrections and move teeth over a longer period of time. Plates are most often prescribed to children, while braces can be used in both childhood and adulthood.
The duration of treatment depends on the complexity of the problem and how accurately the child follows the doctor's recommendations. On average, treatment with plates lasts from 6 months to 2 years.
To achieve the maximum effect, the plates must be worn daily, usually at least 16-20 hours a day. Regular visits to the orthodontist will help monitor progress and promptly adjust the treatment plan.
In the first few days after the installation of plates or other orthodontic devices, your child may experience mild discomfort or pressure on the teeth. This is a normal reaction, as the teeth and jaw begin to adapt to the new position.
However, the pain is usually short-lived and goes away after a few days. In case of severe discomfort, the doctor may recommend mild painkillers, such as ibuprofen.
