If your child is showing early signs of dental misalignment, phase 1 orthodontics may be the ideal solution to guide their smile's development. Designed specifically for children aged 6 to 10, this early intervention focuses on addressing jaw growth, space issues, and other alignment concerns while your child’s mouth is still developing.
At Manor Kids Dentist, we’re proud to offer this transformative orthodontic treatment, which helps your child achieve a confident, healthy smile during these formative years. With our experienced team and child-friendly environment, we make the process easy and comfortable for both kids and parents.
Phase 1 orthodontics at Manor Kids Dentist is carefully tailored to meet the unique needs of growing children. Early treatment can resolve potential problems before they escalate, giving your child more comfort and confidence and potentially avoiding more complex treatments in the future. Our team, led by Dr. Liz Montero and Dr. Dania Turcios, provides compassionate, bilingual care for Manor’s growing families.
Plus, with sedation options available for children who are anxious or have special healthcare needs, your child’s experience is designed to be as stress-free as possible. We’re here to support you and your child every step of the way, ensuring an enjoyable experience that’s focused on creating healthy, happy smiles for life.
Phase 1 orthodontics directs your child’s jaw development to ensure proper alignment as their permanent teeth come in. This early intervention helps prevent overcrowding, uneven bites, and potential jaw pain later on.
Addressing issues early can minimize or even eliminate the need for orthodontic treatments like extractions or corrective surgeries later. It’s a proactive way to simplify your child's orthodontic care down the road.
Straightening teeth and improving jaw alignment early can help your child feel more confident in their smile during important social and developmental milestones.

Your child’s journey begins with a thorough consultation at Manor Kids Dentist. During this visit, we’ll assess their dental development using X-rays and advanced imaging technology to identify any concerns. Together, we’ll create a personalized phase 1 treatment plan and explain every step so you and your child feel confident.
Depending on your child’s needs, phase 1 orthodontics may include orthodontic treatments like spacers, palate expanders, or partial braces to help guide their developing teeth and jaws. Our caring team ensures your child remains comfortable throughout the process and keeps you informed with progress updates along the way.
Once active treatment is complete, we’ll closely monitor your child’s ongoing growth to ensure all of their permanent teeth come in correctly. Regular checkups allow us to make any necessary adjustments and ensure your child’s smile continues to develop as planned. Further orthodontic treatment may be needed in their teen years, but phase 1 treatment makes this “phase 2” treatment process much simpler and faster for kids with complex orthodontic issues.
