When Should A Child See An Orthodontist? Dr. Champlin Explains

As Dr. Champlin explains in this video, its important to have children evaluated for orthodontic treatment early, even when they still have their baby teeth. This is important, because children are going quite differently than they were just 30 years ago. We recommend you schedule an initial consultation for your child about the time when their permanent teeth are just starting to erupt. Dr. Champlin demonstrates in this video how this works with his helpful assistant, Issac. Check out the video, and let us know what you think!

Dr. Daniel Azani Explains the Pros and Cons of Invisalign in Lancaster, CA

As you will see in the video, Invisalign treatment poses many benefits, among them being:

Invisalign is clear- many people will never know you are in orthodontic treatment at all! While other types of discreet orthodontic treatment are available, such as lingual braces, these can often be difficult to clean, and can irritate your mouth.

Invisalign is removable- This allows you to eat most foods easily without fear of damaging your braces, and it makes it easy to keep your teeth and your invisalign trays clean.
