The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that patients see an orthodontist for their first examination no later than age 7.

While most orthodontic patients are older than age 7, there are some patients who could significantly benefit from early diagnosis and treatment planning. Examples include: patients with a constricted upper jaw, crossbite, underbite, openbite, or crowding.
