Abstract :
There is still debate over the ideal time to begin orthodontic treatment. To optimize growth potential and patient cooperation, definitive treatment typically is delayed until the late mixed dentition and is used to resolve functional issues and anomalies of dental development. However, for specific types of malocclusion, some medical professionals advise beginning treatment earlier. The degree of the malocclusion, the patient's age and level of development at the time the patient sought treatment, and the timing of the treatment interventions all had an impact. This article explains over all review of the timing of the orthodontic treatment.
