You may be asking yourself if it is time for your adolescent in Cortlandt Manor NY to begin orthodontic treatment. The most common time to begin orthodontic treatment is in adolescence. By this time, most of the permanent teeth are in and the facial bones are growing to their adult size. For many patients, adolescence is an excellent time to have orthodontic treatment.
