That's why SMILE-FX Orthodontics in Miramar is the go-to for families like ours seeking Phase 1 orthodontics—guiding kids ages 6-10 toward straighter smiles without the stress.

No high-volume mills here; we prioritize your child's comfort with VIP suites, noise-canceling headphones, weighted blankets, VR games, snacks, and kid-friendly TVs.

Our board-certified orthodontists use low-dose CBCT scans and digital planning for precise, gentle Phase 1 care. It's not about rushing braces; it's about intercepting issues early to simplify future treatment and boost confidence.
Signs Your 6-10 Year Old May Benefit from Phase 1
- Crowding: Teeth overlapping early? Phase 1 creates space naturally.
- Crossbite: Jaw misalignment affecting chewing—we guide growth painlessly.
- Mouth breathing: Often tied to narrow jaws; expanders promote nasal breathing.
- Thumb sucking: Lingering habits impacting bite—appliances help kindly.
AAO recommends evaluation by age 7, not for fear, but opportunity. Most kids don't need immediate treatment—that's a trust-builder at SMILE-FX. Learn more in our cutting-edge technology overview.
