A Head Start To A Beautiful Smile
Phase 1 Early Treatment / Interceptive Orthodontics
Phase 1 early treatment, also known as interceptive orthodontics, is a preventative approach targeting children aged 7-10 with developing dental issues. The goal is to intercept and address problems early to simplify later orthodontic treatment, minimize the need for tooth extraction, and prevent more serious complications.
What is it like to get Phase 1 Treatment?
During a Phase 1 treatment, your child may receive partial braces, orthodontic appliances, or space maintainers, depending on their needs. The process starts with a comprehensive evaluation by an orthodontist, such as our own Dr. McDaniel in Jacksonville, FL, to identify any potential issues.
How Long Does Treatment Last?
The length of Phase 1 treatment varies, but it typically lasts 9-12 months. Following this, most children wear a retainer and enter a resting phase while waiting for the remaining permanent teeth to come into place.
Is it Painful or Uncomfortable?
Most children experience minimal discomfort during Phase 1 treatment. Some may feel slight pressure or soreness when a new appliance is first placed, but this usually subsides quickly. At Ortho 99 Plus 1, we prioritize our patient’s comfort during every procedure.
How Much Does It Cost?
The cost of Phase 1 treatment in Jacksonville varies depending on the specific treatment plan. At Ortho 99 Plus 1, we believe in affordable orthodontics, which is why we offer a variety of payment options, accept orthodontic insurance, and are dedicated to working with families to ensure they understand all costs upfront.
