A little known fact in our culture today is that, as humans, many of us have underdeveloped jaw structures. This means that we are not utilizing our oral structure to its full potential and it is negatively impacting our life on a daily basis. For most, we have adapted to this underdeveloped jaw, but it often leads to problems eating, speaking, breathing, and sleeping. But this doesn’t have to be the case. As parents, your child’s growth and development is up to you, so why not help them avoid these concerns and guide them to a properly developed oral structure?

With epigenetics and Face Forward Dentistry, our team at Balance Epigenetic Orthodontics can help your child achieve a more aesthetic and functional mouth and face. Epigenetics is basically growth guidance for your children. Dr. David Buck can help guide the growth of the mouth and jaw to a proportionate and balanced state. This not only improves their oral functionality, but also helps their appearance as they grow.

The Advantages Face Forward Dentistry can Give Your Child

• A balanced facial shape
• A straighter smile
• Improved breathing
• Enhanced oral function
• More restful sleep
• Improved posture

It’s Not a Scary Procedure!

Many parents worry that epigenetics and Face Forward Dentistry is scary or painful for their child. But the truth is, for your children, the treatment feels no different than simple braces. The secret is that when we use orthodontic braces on your child, the goal is not to just straighten teeth and close gaps. With Face Forward Dentistry, the goal is to realign the jaw and guide the future growth of the jaw into a proper position. Once completed, your child will likely feel and look much better, improving in many areas of their life!

Giving Children an Advantage

While epigenetics and Face Forward Dentistry can benefit both kids and adults alike, it is more often used with children. This is because children are still growing and it is easier to control their future growth if caught and addressed early. When complete, patients will have an advantage in their overall life, from complex problems to everyday concerns.
